Our beadmakers use extreme care to maintain its sparkle in the hot flame. Tiny bits of colored glass add a variety of hues in each different design, and no two are identical!

NEW Limited Edition Designs from Fenton Gift Shop. . .

Fenton Gift Shop is pleased to offer these beautiful Limited Edition selections for pre-orders. Each piece features a hand painted design (signed, numbered and dated) by our talented designers. Included in this grouping are a 10" Feather Vase, a 2.5" Mouse, a 5.75" Ghost, a 12.5" Vase, a 4" dia. Blown Ornament with 7" stand in Crystal Satin, and a 5" Duck Figurine, each piece handcrafted in Opal Satin. These pieces were made exclusively for the Fenton Gift Shop, using a Fenton mould, by Mosser Glass.

Michelle Kibbe created a wintry blue sky for the background on this Opal Satin Feather Vase. Each panel features a cute mouse, adorned in a colorful winter sweater and scarf, gliding about in ice skates while snowflakes fall around them. Each Skating Mouse Trio Vase is $150.

The perfect companion piece for the Skating Mouse Trio Vase is this adorable Mouse figurine, also hand painted by Michelle Kibbe. Michelle decked this figurine out in a red and white sweater with a colorful green and red striped scarf and black skates. Note the small curls on the forehead and the delightful expression on the face. Each Skatie Mouse Figurine is $75.

 

Below: Kim Barley's whimsical talent shines with her delightful "Boo to You" design on our 5.75" Ghost figurine. You'll smile at the hand painted details, from the wide-eyed spider and bat to the scowling face on the tree. White and gold stars provide a frame effect on this scene.

 

Note the black cat with the grinning pumpkin on the back side of this figurine. That toothy grin on the pumpkin forms the word "EEK". Kim also added hand lettering "DO NOT ENTER" and "RIP 2017". Each Boo to You Ghost Figurine is $115.

 

 

 

Pre-orders for the Skating Mouse Trio Vase, as well as the Skatie Mouse and Boo to You Ghost Figurines will be accepted until midnight (ET) on Monday, April 24, 2017.

Our impressive 12.5" Opal Satin Vase provides the perfect canvas for Robin Spindler's equally impressive design of a man fishing for rainbow trout. She appropriately titled her design "Over the Rainbow" as you can see the trout jumping up out of the water toward the spinner bait. The hand painted details are true to life and this vase is a statement piece for any fishing enthusiast!
Each Over the Rainbow Vase is  $240 and is limited to just 16 pieces.

Fenton Art Glass partnered with West Virginia glass artisan Ron Hinkle to develop marvelous blown ornaments. A native of Buchannon, Ron's work has been featured on the West Virginia Governor's Christmas Tree and the Christmas Pageant of Peace trees at the White House.

 

Fenton Gift Shop is pleased to offer this hand blown ornament with a special hand painted design by Kim Barley to celebrate All Hallow's Eve. This ornament was handcrafted in crystal glass, rolled in large flakes of opal frit, and sand blasted for a satin finish. We'll even add an attractive gold display stand!

 

Kim once again shows her whimsical side with this marvelous design of a spider web and all the "Spooky" symbols associated with All Hallow's Eve. Note the stars in hues of orange and gold, a tree with straggly  branches resembling reaching fingers, a hovering black bat, a small black cat with eerie eyes, and a purple spider crawling in its web. The web encircles the top portion of the ornament. Kim added her signature near the tree. Perfect heirloom to display every year! Each Spooky Blown Ornament with Stand is $75.

Michelle Kibbe transformed this figurine into the brilliant Harlequin Duck. Did you know. . . The male Harlequin is very distinct and can not be confused with any other waterfowl species. The basic body color is a deep slate blue, with bright white stripes, crescents and spots on the head, neck and scapulars. The Harlequin is also known as the "circus" or "painted" duck because of its beautiful colors. Each Harlequin Duck Figurine is $75.

 

Pre-orders for the Over the Rainbow Vase, Spooky Blown Ornament with Stand and the Harlequin Duck Figurine will be accepted until midnight (ET) on Wednesday, April 26, 2017. Please call the Fenton Gift Shop to pre-order: 1-800-319-7793, ext. 342 or email: purchasing@fentongiftshop.com and include the name(s) of each item you want to purchase in the subject line.

Fenton Art Glass eBay Auctions. . .

Here's an opportunity to own a beautiful "one-of-a-kind" art glass creation or a piece of Fenton history through our weekly eBay auctions. This auction ends at noon (ET) on Wednesday, April 26th. Items featured this week.

 

With satin-finished Burmese glass for her canvas, Fenton artist Michelle Kibbe has depicted a pair of "very sleepy" kittens on this gorgeous one-of-a-kind vase (9" tall). Every element of the lush floral motif is perfectly executed, and the two kittens are remarkably realistic ... but very sleepy indeed! The floral motif completely encircles the vase. Burmese glass contains pure gold in the glass batch, and special reheating techniques are needed to create the delicate pink blush.

Here’s a wonderful iridized Dusty Rose basket (3.75” tall), made at Fenton Art Glass in the early 1990s. We asked Fenton Art Glass Company President George Fenton to personally sign his name on the underside of this basket. Note the crimped edge and the hand applied handle. This basket was made with an historic Fenton mould that was designated simply as No. 37 when it was first used in the early 1940s.

With satin-finished Persimmon glass for her canvas, Fenton artist Kim Barley has depicted two lively, colorful Parrots on this gorgeous one-of-a-kind vase (6.5" tall). Every element is perfectly executed, and the Parrots seem to chatter and squawk as you view the vase! Persimmon is a cased glass with an exterior layer of ruby glass and an interior layer of milk glass.
