Glass (using the Fenton moulds) for the Fenton Gift Shop, with
the exception of the Iceberg Paperweight and the Lighthouse
Fairy Light.

Cast a soft, warm
light in any room with our 8" Fairy Light Lighthouse. This
Lighthouse was handcrafted in Opal Satin glass (base) and
crystal (top) at Fenton
Collectibles using the Fenton Art Glass moulds that were
not used for production before glassmaking halted at
Fenton in 2011.
Kim Barley created an inspirational
design we call "Dream Higher" on this 8" Lighthouse Fairy
Light. The phrase "Dream higher than
the Sky. . . Deeper than the Ocean" is hand lettered in a golden color around the
base. Kim's hand painted symbols of the sea are marvelous
and encircle the Fairy Light. Close-up views of a life
preserver, shells, starfish and an anchor are shown at
right. Bubbles, blue waves and gold accents complete this
set. Each Fairy Light includes a battery-operated
tea light. Each Dream Higher Lighthouse is
$125.
Below: Michelle Kibbe's hand painted scene of a
ground squirrel munching on a tasty strawberry treat is
delightful! This 5.5" wide x 7" tall Cobalt Iceberg
Paperweight was made by Mosser Glass and provides the
perfect canvas for Michelle Kibbe's design. |

|
Did you know. . . how to tell the
difference between a chipmunk and a ground squirrel? The
ground squirrel has a white ring around the eye and body
stripes like chipmunks, but it has no head stripes. Each
Ground Squirrel Cobalt Iceberg Paperweight is $90. |
Michelle Kibbe created an elegant design on
this 9.75" Opal Satin Vase that features stylized swallows,
lush vining flowers and band accents in a brick red color.
When Michelle brought us this vase to photograph, it received
a lot of "oohs" and "aahs" in the office! The brushstrokes on
the delicate flowers and within the color bands are
meticulously executed. Michelle created a wonderful background
in a golden-light brown color to complement the darker
red-orange shades she used on this vase. Each Stylized
Swallows Vase is $150.
Pre-orders for the Dream Higher
Lighthouse Fairy Light, Ground Squirrel
Cobalt Iceberg Paperweight
and the Stylized Swallow
Vase will be accepted until midnight (ET) on
Monday, March 12, 2018. To place your pre-order, please call

Our 10" Opal Satin Vase will make quite the
statement when on display in your home! Robin Spindler's hand
painted design features a regal mother cheetah resting in the
tall grass. A watchful cub stands close by her side. Another
cub, looking curious, is hand painted on the other side of
this vase. Robin added gold and white banding and "cheetah
spots" to the top and bottom to frame her scene. Did you
know. . . Research shows that the fastest human beings can run 40 miles an hour, but average closer to 12-15 mph. The
cheetah, on the other hand, is the fastest animal in the world
and can reach speeds of up to 61 miles per hour! Each
Cheetah Family Vase is $200.
|
Our 11" Jadeite Alley Cat provides the
perfect background for Kim Barley's hand painted scene of
a small duckling peeking out from amongst the cattails.
Kim added a beautiful lotus blossom on one side and
vibrant daisies on the other side. The cat also sports a
golden collar. As always, the Alley Cat's mischievous
expression is wonderful. Each Lotus Blossom Duckling
Alley Cat is $225. |

These adorable mouse figurines are ready for Easter with

Satin 2.75" figurine has an airbrushed background of

polka dots on the ears and an egg design on the front.
"Pinky", the girl mouse, has a large daisy
adorning the top of the head and a chick design on the
egg. "Bleu" the boy mouse, sports a bunny design on his
egg and a colorful kite design with white bows on the tail.

Fenton Art Glass eBay Auctions. . .
Here's your opportunity to own a beautiful
"one-of-a-kind" art glass creation or items from
Fenton's past through our weekly eBay auctions. These auctions end on Wednesday,
March 14. Remember to set your clocks forward in some parts of
the country.
Items featured this week. . .
This wonderful, one-of-a-kind hand painted
Fenton Art Glass Lotus Mist Burmese basket (8" tall) by Fenton
artist Michelle Kibbe is a sure sign that Spring is on its
way! Lotus Mist Burmese is a classic Fenton color that
contains pure gold, and special reheating techniques by our
glassworkers were needed to create the delicate pink blush.
Michelle's hand painted design combines a wonderful delicate
butterfly with rich green foliage and splendid lush flowers in
a variety of colors, as you can see in the photos. Note the
dramatic crimp style and the fine rib twisted handle.
With satin finished Opal Satin glass for her canvas, Fenton
artist Michelle Kibbe designed and hand painted this splendid
one-of-a-kind covered candy jar (9.5" tall). The yellow baby
chicks (we can almost hear them chirp!) and the colorful
flowers and green foliage are perfectly executed, and all the
other hand painted details are simply marvelous. Delicate
airbrushing frames the scenes, which completely encircle the
candy jar. Made by Mosser Glass, using the Fenton mould,
exclusively for the Fenton Gift Shop.
Award-winning Fenton designer Robin Spindler was inspired to
go "outside the box" when she designed and hand painted this
"pre-historic" one-of-a-kind paperweight (7" tall, 5.5" wide
at base). We can almost hear this T-Rex Dinosaur roar as the
volcano erupts in the distance and the earth shakes! The
meticulous hand painting and colors convey quite a sense of
excitement. This Cobalt Blue paperweight was produced at
Mosser Glass. These auctions will end on Wednesday,
March 14, 2018. REMINDER: Be aware of the time change on March
11 in some areas of the country.
