Fenton Supports the ALS Association

with the 6-1/4" Rosalene Heart Relish

2007 ALSA Exclusive Heart Relish Honor your valentine with this Fenton classic...a heart-shaped relish modeled after those we first made a half-century ago. Kim Barley's handpainted Vining Heart decoration graces the piece. Each heart relish bears the signatures of nine family members and the ALSA logo and is limited to 1850 pieces.

ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease) has impacted the lives of loved ones in the Fenton family. Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neuro-degenerative disease that attacks nerve cells and pathways in the brain and spinal cord. The ALS Association funds research into the causes of and treatments for ALS; $5.00 from the sale of each Rosalene Heart relish will be donated to the ALSA.

The Fenton Foundation of the Fenton Art Glass Company has been providing philanthropic support for over 50 years. In 2004, the Fenton Foundation selected the ALS Association as its national partner. The ALS Association was chosen because of the Fenton family’s direct experiences with this terrible disease, and to date, Fenton has donated over $25,000.00 to the ALSA through the sale of selected pieces. The Fenton family will continue to work in partnership with ALSA to make advances in the fight against Lou Gehrig’s disease. For more information about ALS and The ALS Association, visit www.alsa.org or call 1-800-782-4747.

Antiques of Tomorrow

During the Victorian Era, colored art glass combined with elegant metal fixtures became the height of fashion. Working with importers, Fenton has commissioned the creation of intricately-designed fixtures reminiscent of Pairpoint silver. Note the careful attention to piercing, open work, and even the most minute details on the handles. These pieces are truly the "Antiques of Tomorrow."
