NEW Limited Editions from Fenton Gift Shop. . .
We are pleased to offer these new Limited
Edition selections for pre-orders. Each piece features a hand
painted design and will be signed, numbered and dated by one
of our talented designers. We are pleased to introduce a new shape to
our Limited Editions product line ─ a Covered Box made by Mosser Glass. The other
Limited Edition items include a large (5.5" dia.) crystal paperweight made by Mosser
Glass and a smaller crystal paperweight (3.5" dia.) that
was made by Fenton Art Glass. The other items were made by
Mosser, using the Fenton moulds, for the Fenton Gift Shop.
RETURN POLICY: Returns are accepted on "undamaged"
items. Returns are to be shipped within 30 days of receipt, at
customer expense, to the Fenton Gift Shop, 2242 Williams Hwy.,
Suite 108, Williamstown, WV 26187. A 5% restocking fee will be
applied for this return. For damaged items, please contact
Fenton Gift Shop at 800-319-7793, ext. 342.
This whimsical Alley Cat figurine has also
been one of Fenton's most popular items since it was first
made in 1970. Since then, we've seen a multitude of
creative designs! Michelle Kibbe adds another unique
design with hand painted Monarch butterflies and Lilacs on
this 11" Eggplant Alley Cat. The delicate brushstrokes on
the two butterflies are amazing and true to life! The
purple and white hues of the Lilacs blend beautifully with
the Eggplant glass. Each Monarchs & Lilacs Alley
Cat Figurine is $195.
We are pleased to introduce a new shape to our product line ─
a Jadeite glass "butter tub" made by Mosser Glass.
Before refrigerators were used in households, butter was
stored in a round or rectangular covered dish.
This 4.5" x 4.5" Jadeite piece is very versatile. Use it as a
treasure box to store your precious keepsakes or as a candy
box. . . or think "outside the box" and come up with your own
use for this beautiful Limited Edition set! This set is satin
finished on the outside and has a glossy interior.
Michelle Kibbe adds to the beauty of the
Jadeite glass with her hand painted design with beautiful
purple and white butterflies and color coordinating flowers.
Delicate scrollwork and crosshatch details with green bands
complete this set. Each Butterflies & Floral
Covered Box
is $100.
Handcrafted in
Eggplant glass with a satin finish, this 2.75" Mouse
figurine features
Kim Barley's popular "Butterfly & Lilacs"
design. This design was most recently offered on our Owl
fgurine in late June, 2019.
Kim painted the colorful aqua-blue and gold
butterfly on one of the mouse's ears. Clusters of lovely
lilacs in shades of purple adorn the head, body and the
other ear.
Note the heart-shaped nose, white whiskers
and that adorable expression! Each Butterfly &
Lilacs Mouse Figurine
is $80. |

Monarchs & Lilacs Alley
Cat Figurine,
Butterflies & Floral
Covered Box and the Butterfly & Lilacs Mouse Figurine

22, 2019. To pre-order, please call Fenton Gift Shop:
1-800-319-7793, ext. 342 or email: purchasing@fentongiftshop.com
and include the names of the items you want to
purchase in the subject line.

we may follow-up on your request. We may have people
with the same first name, so we also need a last name.
Thank you!
Collectors have enjoyed the charm of Fenton
fairy lights for more than half a century. The flickering
flame from a small candle or tea light placed inside a Fenton
Fairy Light always seems to warm an entire room. For this
two-part 5" Opal Satin Fairy Light, Kim Barley's
delightful design includes bright daisies with golden centers
and petite white flowers and polka dots with a fabulous
dragonfly fluttering above the scene. The base is Opal Satin
with light blue tones and Kim painted the top in a blend of green and
blue. Each Daisies & Dragonfly Fairy Light is $90.
Robin Spindler goes back in time with her
design on our Opal Satin Snowcouple. Look closely at the
faces of the Snowlady and Snowman and you may be reminded
of a famous 1930 painting by the American artist Grant
Wood.
Robin used a thin, short black line to create the resolute
expression on the face of each figurine. The 3.75" Snowlady is attired in a 1930s style brown dress rickrack
accents and a cameo brooch. One hand holds a
basket of red apples. The 4" Snowman sports white
spectacles, denim bib overalls and a dark gray jacket
with matching hat. He is holding a wooden cane. A colorful
orange pumpkin with curling green vines rests by his side. Each
Stylized American Gothic
Snowcouple Figurine Pair is $140.
Robin Spindler used her reverse painting
technique to create this splendid scene of two does eating
apples on this 7" Crystal Iceberg Paperweight. Her scene
has a three-dimensional effect with the front half of each
deer, as well as the fallen apples, appearing in the
foreground. The tall trees and back sections of the deer
are in the background. Each Feeding Time Paperweight is $110.
This Fenton Art Glass Crystal 3.5" diameter
round paperweight is painted in a soft purple hue. The
bottom area has a flat section for display purposes.
Michelle Kibbe thought her "Moonlight Hoot Owl" design
would work well on this round paperweight and we think
you'll agree! Tall pine trees and a dark gray-purple sky
appear in the background with the Hoot Owl perched on a
large, leafy branch in the front. We placed a small
tealight just behind the paperweight to see if it would
glow... see for yourself the unique effect it created (far
right photo)! Each Moonlight Hoot Owl
Paperweight is $80.
Pre-orders for the Daisies &
Dragonfly Fairy Light, Stylized American Gothic
Snowcouple Figurine Pair, Feeding Time Paperweight, and the Moonlight Hoot Owl
Paperweight will be accepted
until midnight (ET) on Wednesday, July 24, 2019. To
pre-order, please call Fenton Gift Shop:
1-800-319-7793, ext. 342 or email:
purchasing@fentongiftshop.com and include the
names of the items you want to purchase in the subject
line as well as your full name and daytime phone
number. You may also request we add your email address
to our mailing list for future Limited Edition
specials!

Fenton
Art Glass
eBay Auctions. . .
|
Here's your opportunity to own a beautiful
"one-of-a-kind" Fenton Art Glass creation or items
from Fenton's history through our weekly
Fenton Art Glass eBay auctions. These Fenton's eBay
auctions will end on Wednesday, July 24.
Items
featured this week. . .
NOTE: Due to an internet/phone outage
and the eBay auctions ending earlier than planned, we are
including an item from last week in case you didn't have a
chance to place your bid!
With satin finished opaque Eggplant glass for
her canvas, Fenton artist Michelle Kibbe created and hand
painted this splendid Stylized Cat figurine (note the
expressive amber eyes!). Purple/blue pine trees set the scene
for the glorious full moon and a delightful "Hoot Owl" perched
on a tree branch ... just look at those big eyes! Designed by
Fenton sculptor Jon Saffell in the 1990s, the Stylized Cat
figurine quickly became a favorite among Fenton collectors.
This one-of-a-kind Cat figurine (5.25" tall) is identified,
dated and signed on the underside: "M. Kibbe 2019 OOAK". |
For more than 35 years glass collectors enjoyed
visiting the Fenton Museum. The glass on display included
articles from Nineteenth Century glass companies in the Ohio
Valley─such as Hobbs, Riverside and Royal─as well as Fenton
glass from 1907 onward. Here are the keys to the Fenton Museum
...from the front door (marked "GM") ... and to the "Theater"
where folks could see the Fenton movie ... as well as keys to
the display cabinets and even the file cabinet where Jennifer
M. kept her lists and correspondence. We've added a keychain
with a Dave Fetty pendant (1.5" dia.) that is marked with
Dave's personal stamp. It is also signed by Dave. There won't
be any other key sets like this one!
The various Bear figurines are among the most
popular collectibles from Fenton Art Glass, and this
one-of-a-kind hand painted Reclining Bear figurine (about 4"
long) by Fenton artist Michelle Kibbe is sure to find a
prominent place in a lucky person's collection. We'll call
this one the "honeybee bear," as Michelle's expert hand
painting on Opal Satin glass created a splendid look. Note the
details ... from the honeybees to the heart-shaped nose! As
always, the eyes are remarkably expressive. This one-of-a-kind
hand painted Reclining Bear figurine is identified, dated and
signed on the underside: "hand painted by M. Kibbe 2019 OOAK".
These Fenton's eBay auctions will end on Wednesday, July 24.
