NEW
Fenton Gift Shop
Limited Editions . .
.
Fenton Gift Shop is pleased to offer a new selection of
Limited Editions!
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 an 11" Alley Cat in
satin finished Rose glass, as well as an 8" satin
finished Crown Tuscan Chessie Cat Covered
Box, a 9.5" Opal Satin Candy Box, a 3" Ruby Satin Mouse
figurine and a 3.5" Opal Satin Lop Eared Bunny figurine,
all handcrafted by Mosser Glass. These pieces were made exclusively for the
Fenton Gift Shop, using a Fenton mould, and returned to
our factory where our talented designers created
these wonderful Limited Edition designs! You may also
request that we add your email address to Fenton Gift
Shop's mailing list to receive future limited
edition notifications.
Our 11" Alley Cat with that delightful grin is
pretty in pink! A NEW color for our limited editions, this
Rose Alley Cat features a wonderful hand painted scene
designed by Robin Spindler. Mama cat appears to smile serenely
as her white kittens play in the flowers at her feet. One
curious kitten appears to meet up with a mouse. . . perhaps to
play "cat and mouse!" Note the touch of "bling" on the cat's
collar!
Each Rosie and Her Kittens Alley Cat figurine is $235.
The back side of our popular Chessie Cat
Covered Box has been transformed into a garden of vibrant
poppies! A black and white kitten settles down for a "cat nap"
on the front. The soft pink hues of Crown Tuscan glass provide
the perfect canvas for this design by Frances Burton. Her
delicate hand painted poppy flowers are lovely and the details
on the kitten make you want to reach out and pet it!
Did you know that the "Chessie" cat was a
popular character used as a symbol for the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railway. They used this artwork with their slogan that, when
traveling on their railway, you would "sleep like a kitten".
Each Poppies Kitten Chessie Cat
Covered Box is $195.
Pre-orders for the Rosie
and Her Kittens Alley Cat figurine and the Poppies
Kitten Chessie Cat Covered Box will be accepted until
midnight (ET) on Monday, May 23rd.
Shown below are two "must haves" for figurine
collectors. . . an Opal Satin Lop-eared Bunny and a Ruby Satin
Mouse! Frances Burton's design for this "Flopsy" Bunny
figurine includes a heart-shaped nose and a wide-eyed and
smiling face. "Flopsy" holds a flower that matches the one on
the headband! Soft pink shading completes the look for this
adorable figurine. Each Flopsy Bunny figurine is
$75.
One look at Kim Barley's design for this Ruby
Satin Mouse figurine and we had the name. . . Jammin'.
The glass "batch" to make Ruby is sensitive to heat with
interesting color variations. Collectors take great delight in
the red-orange effect called "amberina" and it's very evident
on the ears and paws of this figurine! Each Jammin'
Mouse figurine is $75.
Below: Frances Burton's hand painted details on
this Opal Satin Candy Box will brighten up any room in your
home! Her vibrant use of color and delicate brushstrokes for
the flowers and the basket weaves add to the beauty of this
design. Each Basket of Pansies Candy Box is $180.
Pre-orders for the
Flopsy Bunny and
Jammin' Mouse figurines and the
Basket of Pansies Candy Box will be accepted until midnight
(ET) on Wednesday, May 25th. To pre-order, please call

Weekly
eBay Auctions. . .
Here's your opportunity to own
a beautiful 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. . .
A sketch by longtime Fenton mould maker Lynn Russi
provided all the inspiration
Frances Burton needed to create this wonderful one-of-a-kind 10"
vase! The
satin finished light green glass was made at Fenton in the early
2000s using
an historic Fenton mould that is more than 70 years old, and
Lynn's sketch was an interesting depiction of a "Pennsylvania
Dutch-style" bird. Frances chose the colors for her hand painting,
and the results are a sight to behold.
The Chickens have come home … but they're not about to roost!
These colorful birds are hand painted by Michelle Kibbe on this
one-of-a-kind pitcher (8.5" tall) in satin finished Lotus Mist
Burmese, made by Fenton with a mould acquired from Indiana Glass
in 2003 (note the distinctive crimp style!). Michelle's hand
painting is remarkably detailed, and the blue band adds to the eye
appeal of this wonderful piece. Lotus Mist Burmese is a classic
Fenton color, made with pure gold and subjected to special
reheating techniques to create the pink blush.
Burmese glass is a classic Fenton color, and the Diamond Optic
motif adds much to the appeal of this one-of-a-kind 10” tall
basket by Fenton artist Michelle Kibbe. A happy Bluebird greets
Spring from its perch, and we can almost hear its song! Fenton's
Burmese glass contains pure gold, and careful reheating techniques
by skilled glassworkers coax the pink blush to the surface.
Special moulds are needed for the Diamond Optic. The base and bowl together measures 5.5”
tall. Take a look at these offerings and other "Buy It Now" items
available on our Fenton eBay Auctions.
