Fenton Gift Shop Presents. . . NEW Limited Edition Glass!

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" Jadeite Alley Cat, a 2.75" Ruby Satin Mouse figurine, a 5.75" Opal Satin Ghost figurine and a 9.5" Opal Satin Candy Box, each handcrafted by our friends at Mosser Glass. Also included is a 9.5" Vase made in Opal Satin by Davis-Lynch 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!

The green hues of this Jadeite glass Alley Cat provides the perfect canvas for Robin Spindler's hand painted design of pandas playing in the bamboo. The pastel green background complements the vibrant pink stylized flowering Hibiscus depicted on this 11" Alley Cat. Lush bamboo stalks with dense foliage encircle the entire figurine. Each Playful Pandas Alley Cat Figurine is $235.

This Ruby Satin Mouse figurine is cute as a button and is sure to please collectors of the Fenton animal figurines! Frances Burton has transformed this figurine into a girl mouse wearing a pink dotted swiss dress with lace trim and a matching hair bow. Don't forget that adorable face! Note the wonderful Amberina effect on the ears and paws! We decided to name it "Ruby" for the marvelous, rich glass color. Each Ruby, the Ruby Satin Mouse Figurine is $75.

 

Pre-orders for the Playful Pandas Alley Cat Figurine and Ruby, the Ruby Satin Mouse Figurine will be accepted until midnight (ET) on Monday, August 15th, 2016. Please contact Fenton Gift Shop: 1-800-319-7793, ext. 342 or send an email: purchasing@fentongiftshop.com

 

Robin Spindler continues her "endangered species" series of hand painted designs. She named this series "Fading from Memory" and each limited edition piece will feature an endangered species. The second limited edition piece in Robin's "Fading from Memory" series is this elegant Opal Satin vase featuring a black footed ferret.

 

According to the World Wildlife Fund, black-footed ferrets are one of the most endangered mammals in North America and are the only ferret species native to the continent. Their recovery in the wild signifies the health of the grassland eco-system, which they need in order to survive. Black-footed ferrets range in size from 18-24" in length and weigh about 1.5-2.5 pounds.

 

Today, the black-footed ferret population is nearly 300 animals across North America, thanks to the combined efforts of state and federal agencies, zoos, Native American tribes, conservation groups, and private landowners.
We think you'll agree that Robin has done a spectacular job capturing this species in its habitat on this vase! Each Fading from Memory─Black Footed Ferret Vase is $210.

 

Have a bit of Halloween fun with this hand painted "Happy Cat-o-ween"  Opal Satin Ghost figurine designed by Kim Barley. Kim's delightfully whimsical style shines on this figurine depicting Halloween favorites. . . from black cats and witch hats to a spider web with a dangling spider. There's even a pumpkin with a toothy grin on the back side of this figurine.

 

Don't forget the festive polka dotted bowtie and eye mask and check out the fangs on one of the cats! Perfect for your Halloween display! Each Cat-o-ween Ghost Figurine is $130.

 

Serenely swimming along, these two beautiful goldfish have no worries of being caught on a line with the posted "No Fishing" sign on the back of this Opal Satin Candy Box! Robin Spindler's hand painted details feature elegant fins and scales on the fish and colorful underwater accents. Each No Fishing─Goldfish Candy Box is $160.

 

Pre-orders for the Fading from Memory─Black Footed Ferret Vase, the Cat-o-ween Ghost Figurine and the No Fishing─ Goldfish Candy Box will be accepted until midnight (ET) on Wednesday, August 17th, 2016. Please contact Fenton Gift Shop: 1-800-319-7793, ext. 342 or send an email: purchasing@fentongiftshop.com

Fenton eBay Auctions. . .

Here's an opportunity to own a unique, rare, one-of-a-kind creation, through our weekly eBay Auctions! Items featured this week. . .

 

If you like to be “on the links,” then this one-of-a-kind Alley Cat (11” tall) in satin- finished Jadeite glass with hand painting by Fenton artist Michelle Kibbe is a “must have!” From the golf bag, golf ball and tees to the feel of the green, this hand painted Alley Cat figurine is simply splendid. Note the epigram in Michelle’s careful lettering: “Golf for the fun of it.” The Alley Cat is among the most collectible items in Fenton history, and the mould for this piece originated at the United States Glass Co. in Ohio during
the 1920s and was purchased by Fenton Art Glass about 40 years later. The light jade green color was made at Mosser Glass using the Fenton mould.

Sometimes the past and the present combine for a great result. This one-of-a-kind decorated vase (11" tall) is a cased glass color called Wild Rose that dates from the early 1960s, and award winning Fenton designer Robin Spindler has worked her magic on it in 2016, creating a wonderful hand painted scene of a mother Chickadee feeding her young. All the details are perfectly executed, and this one-of-a-kind vase really makes a statement!

This necklace is a great keepsake gift to recall summer memories of time spent at the beach. The pendant is handcrafted in Ivory glass (bottom half) to represent sand and a soft blue shade (top half) to create a lovely beach scene. This "Designer Sample" necklace is a "one-of-a-kind" and was created by Fenton Art Glass Jewelry Designers Jena Lane Blair and Truda "TJ" Mendenhall in Williamstown, West Virginia. There are no other necklaces exactly like this one! Truda designed the hand applied decoration of a beach scene with sand and water. A sailboat rests offshore while a seagull keeps watch on the beach. The art glass pendant measures approx. 7/8” in total length with sterling silver findings (including a shell charm accent) at 1-3/4" in overall length. These pieces suspend gracefully on a 24" sterling silver link necklace. Fenton USA Jewelry is handcrafted with quality and tested for durability. This necklace comes with a gray gift box with the Fenton logo on the inside cover and will ship via USPS Priority Mail. Check out the details on each piece and place your bid! This Fenton eBay auction ends at noon (ET) on Wednesday, August 17th.
