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. Take a look at these offerings and other "Buy It Now" items available on our Fenton eBay Auctions.
