NEW
Fenton Gift Shop
Limited Editions . .
.
Fenton Gift Shop is pleased to offer these new Limited
Edition selections. Each piece features a design by our
award-winning Fenton artists, and will be hand painted,
signed, numbered, and dated by the artist. Included in
this grouping are these items made at Mosser Glass for the
Fenton Gift Shop: an 11" Alley Cat and 2.5"
Mouse figurine in Ruby Satin and an 8" Chessie Cat
Covered Box in Opal Satin with a Buttercream lid. Also
included is a 9" Opal Satin Vase handcrafted by
Davis-Lynch. These pieces were made exclusively for the
Fenton Gift Shop, using a Fenton mould, then returned to
our factory where our talented designers created the
wonderful Limited Edition designs!
 |
Kim Barley's talent for whimsical,
uplifting designs continue on this colorful Opal Satin
Vase. . . perfect for your Spring tabletop display. We
named this vase "Spring Has Sprung!" because the flowers
look like they are springing up to welcome the sunshine
and butterflies! Note the airbrushed pastel hues and the swirl accents along the bottom of the vase.
Each Spring Has Sprung! Vase is $170.
This delightful 2.5" Mouse figurine,
handcrafted in Ruby Satin glass, is garbed in patriotic
finery!
Robin Spindler's hand painted design has "Petey, the Patriotic
Mouse" all decked out in red, white and blue with stripes
for his shirt, stars sparkling in his ears of blue and
big blue eyes and a pink nose!
Petey, The Patriotic Mouse figurine is $75.00 each.
Pre-orders for the Spring Has Sprung!
Vase and
Petey, The Patriotic Mouse
figurine will be accepted
until midnight (ET) on Monday, March 28th.

Robin Spindler's meticulous hand painted details on our
popular Ruby Satin Alley Cat are amazing, and also
challenging to show their true beauty in photographs,
so we added close-ups of Robin's fantasy-themed
"Fungi Fairy" scene encircling this Alley Cat. Note the two
mice, and the interesting-looking toadstools on the lush, mossy
landscape.
Robin's design depicts a fairy girl
(dressed in frilly pink with matching gossamer wings),
reclining on an "Amanita Muscaria" toadstool, gazing at a
beautiful butterfly. Commonly known as "fly agaric" or "fly
amanita", this colorful toadstool is often depicted in children’s
books and on Christmas cards. It is a highly distinctive
toadstool and is rarely confused with any other species.
Each Fungi Fairy Alley Cat is $265.
Frances Burton has incorporated her
signature hand painted roses into the background on this
Opal Satin Chessie Cat Covered Box. The lid is
handcrafted in a soft Buttercream color, and Frances added
stylized flowers and a band of delicate rosebuds around
the bottom of the lid. The adorable gray cat has lovely
green eyes. Each Victorian Roses Chessie Cat
Covered Box is $170.
Pre-orders for the
Fungi Fairy Alley Cat
and the Victorian Roses
Chessie Cat Covered Box will be accepted until
midnight (ET) on Wednesday, March 30th.

Fenton's
Weekly
eBay Auctions. . .
Here's your opportunity to own
a beautiful, unique, rare,
or one-of-a-kind item through our
weekly
eBay Auctions!
Each one-of-a-kind art glass
creation is dated, identified and signed by the
award-winning Fenton artist who designed it. Shown here are our latest offerings.
Items featured this week. . .
With satin-finished Rosalene glass for
her canvas, Fenton artist Frances Burton designed and
hand painted this wonderful one-of-a-kind vase (8.5"
tall). We like the way these detailed hand painted
daisies follow the graceful contours of the glass, and,
as always, the colors are especially rich and vibrant.
This vase is identified, dated and signed on the
underside by Frances Burton.
Spring is well on its way, and this one-of-a-kind Bunny
figurine (3" tall to the top of the raised ear) has been
beautifully hand painted by the talented Kim Barley. The
Opal Satin glass is airbrushed to create a realistic
gray tone, and the details (check out those whiskers!)
are wonderful. As always, the eyes are remarkably
expressive. This one-of-a-kind Bunny figurine is
identified, dated and signed on the underside by Kim
Barley.
Dated February 28, 1943, this 8" x 10" black-and-white
photo was made from an original print in the Fenton
archives. This photo pictures 17 men, all of whom were
associated with the Fenton Art Glass Co. Six of them are
in uniform and seated in the front row. The photo was
taken outside the Fenton office, and you can see the
"OFFICE" directional pointer just above the heads of the
men standing on the left. Between the groups of men,
you'll see a roll of honor with 55 stars to recognize
the number of past and present Fenton employees who were
in the armed forces at that time in 1943. You'll receive
a copy of the photo showing the name and seat location
of each man shown in this photo.
