Shown at right is the Sea & Sand
Pendant Necklace and Earrings Set. This lovely 24"
sterling silver necklace was designed by Jena Lane Blair.
The name is appropriate for the glass pendant and
earrings. Vasa Murrhina is a term meaning "vessel of gems"
and each unique Fenton bead captures a glittering layer of
Goldstone.
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!
Jena's design was inspired by "warm
glittering sand, kissed by the blue green waves." The
pendant and earrings each measure approximately 1" in
height and feature gem accents in complementary
colors.
Originally $149, this Sea & Sand
Necklace and Earring set is offered
at a special 45%
online discount or just $81.95 until 8 p.m. (ET) on Wednesday, April 26.

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

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!

$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.
Click here to place your bid! This Fenton eBay auction ends at noon (ET) on
Wednesday, April 26, 2017.
