Fenton
USA Jewelry Presents. . . Creative Jewelry Gifts!
This holiday season,
give a special gift
of handcrafted American Artistry from Fenton USA Jewelry. . .
or treat yourself!
Our pre-assembled jewelry is
available at affordable prices with outstanding designs in
glass art. Fenton's talented jewelry design
team created a variety of bracelet styles suitable for your
personal fashion expression.
Jena Lane Blair designed the jewelry and glass
treatments, using the finest in colored art glass. Truda "TJ"
Mendenhall designed the hand applied decorations and each
decorated piece of jewelry is initialed by the artist who
completed it. Shown above
are the
Tranquil Pond leather bracelet and the
Trails of Turquoise and
Coral Woods suede bracelets from the Creative Spirit
Collection.
The beautiful Vasa Murrhina
Tranquil Pond Impression bead features still pools of blues
and greens with golden accents. Each unique Fenton bead
captures a glittering layer of Goldstone. Fenton bead makers
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! This difficult
process is one of the secrets of Fenton quality and the
brilliance of our beads. Tranquil Pond (approx. 1.25" long) is
paired with a handmade, rich black leather bracelet and antique pewter accents and
will adjust from 6"-8" in length.
You'll love the soft feel of the
suede bands in our Trails of Turquoise and Coral Woods
bracelets. The Trails of Turquoise bead features hand applied
threads of turquoise glass which create a one-of-a-kind
pattern against the reactive ivory glass. . . unique and
beautiful "wearable" art! The Coral Woods bead has a
pulled feather pattern using reactive glass in earth tones.
Our Creative Spirit bracelets
come in a variety of styles and treatments, including Clasp &
Go Leather Cord bracelets. Each Clasp & Go bracelet has a
Fenton handcrafted bead paired with a leather band in a
coordinating color and includes an extender chain to
accommodate most wrist sizes.

Holiday Amphora Special and
NEW Limited Editions from Fenton Gift Shop. . .
Fenton Gift Shop is offering a limited time special
holiday price and ordering deadline
on the beautiful Opal Satin Amphora with stand
featuring Robin Spindler's hand painted design of an Egret
in its habitat.
This 12" Amphora (14" including stand) was made by
Davis-Lynch, using a Fenton mould.
Robin's love of wildlife and
nature is evident as you view this Opal Satin Amphora. She
airbrushed the background to a pale blue and added the hand
painted design of a majestic Egret, standing amongst reeds and lily pads. Robin's paint layering
technique makes this design really stand out, especially on
the meticulous details of the feathers and flowering blooms. Each
Egret Amphora with stand is $225 and pre-orders
will be accepted until midnight
on
Monday, December 14th.
| Fenton Gift Shop is
pleased to offer new designs as Fenton Gift Shop Limited
Editions. Each piece features a design by our
award-winning Fenton artists, and will be hand painted,
signed and dated. Included in this grouping are an Opal
Satin 11" Alley Cat and a 5.75" Crown Tuscan Owl figurine,
handcrafted by Mosser Glass. Also included
is an Opal Satin 9" Vase, made by Davis-Lynch. Each of
these pieces was made exclusively for the Fenton Gift
Shop, using a Fenton mould. |
 |
Robin Spindler's creative imagination continues
to amaze and delight us all, including many Fenton collectors!
We recently received a suggestion from a customer that Robin
create a design on the Alley Cat that would resemble a fox! We
loved the idea and the end result of Robin's efforts even
more. . . and
we believe you will too!
Robin chose to depict a natural red fox and, as you can see,
the colors blend perfectly. Just look at the amazing hand
painted details on the face and those expressive eyes!
We immediately thought of the perfect name for this impressive
figurine: "Fenton, the Foxy Feline".
Each Fenton, the Foxy Feline
Alley Cat is $240.
Pre-orders for the Fenton, the Foxy
Feline Alley Cat and the Egret Amphora will be accepted until
midnight on Monday,
December 14th. |

Inspired by a story about covered bridges in a local tourism
publication, Robin Spindler choose to depict the "Hills
Bridge" on this 9" Opal Satin Vase.
More than 50 covered bridges were once scattered throughout
Washington County, Ohio. Today, just nine remain as reminders
of the ingenuity of the past. This Bridge is located in
Marietta, Ohio on County Road 333. It is also known as the
"Hildreth Covered Bridge" and dates back to 1881. A photo of the
actual bridge is shown on the far right. You can see how Robin
has creatively
brought it to life on this beautiful vase!
Robin's design takes
you back in time when getting about in the
snow included horse- drawn transportation! An alert
white-tailed deer is hand painted on the back side of the
vase, shown pausing in the snow as if listening to the sounds
coming from the other side of the bridge.
Each Hills Bridge Vase is $215.
|
Robin
chose a red barn in a winter setting for her design on
this Owl figurine and we all agreed that this figurine
should be named "Barney, the Owl".
Robin airbrushed the Crown Tuscan figurine to provide
a natural color and her meticulous use of detail adds
to its beauty.
Each Barney, the Owl Figurine is $95 and it is
limited to just ten figurines!
Pre-orders for the Hills Bridge Vase and
Barney, the Owl Figurine will
be accepted until midnight on Wednesday,
December 16th.

Weekly
eBay Auctions. . .

or one-of-a-kind item through our
weekly
eBay Auctions!
Shown here are our latest offerings.
Items featured this week. . .
Fenton Art Glass "Family Signature
Series" pieces are among the most popular and
collectible Fenton items.
This Opal Satin vase (9" tall) was among the earliest
Family Signature items, having been made available to
collectors in 1993. Inscribed with the signature of
Shelley Fenton, this vase features a nicely detailed
Cottage scene with subtle color tones and lots of
details all around the vase.
The Fenton logo and copyright symbol are hand painted on
the underside, as is the signature of the decorator, and
the individual number of the vase ("825").
Made by Fenton Art Glass as a special
order for QVC in 1992, this Cranberry Opalescent Ginger
Jar with black base and cap stands approx. 8.25" tall
overall. The opalescent Coin Dot motif is "classic"
Fenton, having originated in the late 1940s, and the
mould for the ginger jar goes back to the 1930s! This
example has two special features: a remarkably delicate,
hand painted floral motif and the inscribed signature of
longtime QVC guest Bill Fenton. Bill's signature reads
"W. C. Fenton" [for Wilmer C. Fenton], and not many
Fenton pieces were inscribed this way. The signature of
the decorator also appears: "hand painted by D.
Anderson".
Made as a limited edition for the 1995 regular line,
this Fenton Art Glass 5" Perfume Bottle with
heart-shaped stopper features a design called "Kristen's
Floral", designed by Martha Reynolds. The soft Ivory
Satin glass was brought to life with a raised pink and
lavender enameled flowers with 22k gold embellishment.
Each piece was painted, fired, then painted with gold and
fired again. The bottle is signed on the bottom: handpainted by M. Nichols #1075/2500 and has a Fenton
logo sticker. The heart-shaped stopped is initialed "V.G."
on the base of the heart on the right side.
This lovely 9" tall vase, called "SunFlower," features a
bright design by cameo artists Kelsey Murphy and Robert
Bomkamp. Handcrafted in Aubergine glass and cased with
Milk Glass, the vase has an Aubergine layer that has a
wonderful satin finish. Cameo carving is a painstaking
process. After the glass has been annealed, a special
mask is taped to the surface of the glass. Using an
advanced "vignetting" technique, each piece is carefully
sandcarved, by hand, using aluminum oxide crystals under
pressure to take away some of the surface. Great
individual skill and experience are needed to control
this operation, as many distinct stages of successive
cameo carving are required to create the remarkable
depth and the intricate details. Made in 2011, this vase
was limited to just 40 pieces. This example is number 3
(identified on the underside with "3/40"), complete with
the inscribed signatures of Kelsey Murphy and Robert
Bomkamp and the Fenton script "F" USA logo.
Take a look at these offerings and other "Buy It Now" items
available on our Fenton eBay Auctions. This Fenton
eBay auction ends at noon (ET) on Wednesday, December
16th.
