Summer" Online Special on recently

Collection. Choose from the selections shown in this
newsletter and you'll receive an
online only 25% discount on the
remaining inventory . . . while supplies last!

Each necklace features a hypoallergenic and
tarnish resistant coating. Measurements shown are for the
chains only. Sizes may vary for the pendants and accents
and are included in each description. Jena Lane Blair
designed each Creative Spirit necklace and the hand
applied decorations were designed by Truda "TJ"
Mendenhall. Each Fenton decorated pendant is
initialed by the artist who completed it and then fired to
1200 degrees for durability.
Shown at right is our Jitterbuggin'
Dragonfly Necklace. This necklace features a beautiful
2" handcrafted art glass pendant and a petite dragonfly
charm accent suspended on a made in USA antique pewter
finish 20" chain. Truda was inspired by time spent
watching the antics of dragonflies flitting amongst her
flowers for this decoration (see inset photo).

hand-applied decoration features hues of dark teal, pink
and purple.
The Spiral Garden Necklace features
a 3-1/4" pendant with floral and cross charm accents

was inspired by front porch columns adorned with climbing,
entwined flowers. Her design also spirals around the
entire pendant.

NEW
Fenton Gift Shop
Limited Editions . .
.
Fenton Gift Shop is pleased to offer a new
selection of Limited Editions! Each piece features a design by
our award-winning Fenton artists, and will be hand painted,
signed, numbered, and dated by the artist. Included in this
grouping are a 9.5" Candy Box, a
5.5" Owl figurine and a 2.75" bird figurine, each made in
Opal Satin glass; as well as an 11" Alley Cat in Ruby
glass. .
. all handcrafted by Mosser. Also included this week is a 10"
Opal Satin Vase made by Davis Lynch. These pieces were made exclusively
for the Fenton Gift Shop, using a Fenton mould, and returned
to our factory where our talented designers created these
wonderful Limited
Edition designs! You may also request that we add your email
address to Fenton Gift Shop's mailing list to receive future
limited edition notifications.
One look at this Opal Satin vase and we named
it "Delightful Dragonfly" for Kim Barley's fun and whimsical design
of a hovering colorful dragonfly amongst vibrant stylized flowers. Note the
curliques on the wings and tail and don't
miss that pink flower on the body of the dragonfly! Kim added
final touches with a lone flower on the back side as well as
soft lavender-pink and green hues on the background of the
vase. Each Delightful Dragonfly Vase is $160.
|
Frances Burton's cheery hand painted design
on this Opal Satin bird figurine includes vibrant flowers
and hues of teal and green. Each Spring Flowers
Bird figurine is $80.
Pre-orders for the Delightful Dragonfly Vase and the
Spring Flowers Bird figurine will be accepted until
midnight (ET) on Monday, June 27th. |
Brilliant
Ruby glass provides the perfect canvas for Robin
Spindler's scene of a girl reading near the water. . .
with a fish jumping and her faithful canine companion
sitting contentedly behind her on the other side. Robin
named her creation "I've got your back" and it is included
in her signature on each figurine. The hand
painted details are amazing on this heartwarming scene of
summer tranquility. Each I've got your back Ruby
Alley Cat is $235.
Nature's beauty, one of Frances Burton's
favorite design topics, can be seen in many of her
hand painted creations. . . and this Opal Satin Candy Box
is no exception! Blue and white flowers provide a
beautiful floral frame for two delicate golden
butterflies. Frances added a blue band and scroll accents
to complete the look. The hand painted details are
meticulous, especially on the butterflies. Each
Butterfly Beauty Candy Box is $155.
Below: Frances Burton has transformed this Opal Satin
Owl figurine into an elegant golden raptor! Her hand painted
design includes lush pink flowers as well as striking black
accents. Note those mesmerizing eyes!
Did you know. . . There are
currently about 225 owl species, and of those about 50
have ear tufts. However, these tufts are unrelated to the
owl's hearing as the ears are located on the sides of the
head, behind the eyes.
The function of ear tufts remains a mystery
with several theories. The most common theory is that owls use
their feathery tufts as camouflage. But we're sure that
this graceful Owl figurine will add a touch of beauty to
any display! Each Pink Floral Owl figurine is
$90.
Pre-orders for the
I've got your back Ruby Alley
Cat, the
Butterfly Beauty Candy Box and the Pink Floral
Owl figurine will be accepted until midnight (ET) on
Wednesday, June 29th. To pre-order, please call

Fenton's
Weekly
eBay Auctions. . .
Here's your opportunity to own
a beautiful one-of-a-kind item through our
weekly
eBay Auctions!
Each one-of-a-kind art glass
creation is dated, identified and signed by the
award-winning Fenton artist who designed it. Shown here are our latest offerings.
Items featured this week. . .
 Fenton
artist Michelle Kibbe used a variety of decorative
techniques to create this one-of-a-kind vase. The vase
(10.5” tall) is satin finished ruby glass. A puppy has
jumped to the top of a sofa or chair to watch the
Chickadee on the green branches just outside the
window of a farmhouse. You can see barn buildings in the
background of this scene. Michelle’s colorful hand
painting is remarkably detailed, and every element of
this hand painted decoration is true to life!
Celebrate American independence on the Fourth of July
with this wonderful one-of-a-kind Duck figurine (5" long)
with a patriotic design created and
painted by Fenton artist Frances Burton. Made of Opal
Satin glass by Mosser (using a Fenton mould), this Duck
figurine was the perfect canvas for the subtle
red-white-blue colors of "faded glory." A great addition
to any collection of Fenton glass or figurines!
Here's a great opportunity to acquire an item made by
Fenton Art Glass for a special series sold only on QVC.
This 10.5" tall Spruce Green Opalescent basket with
Violet ring is among the very few items that were ever
inscribed with the signatures of all 12 Fenton family
members who were associated with the Fenton Art Glass
Glass Co. Made for the
New Century Collection in 1999, this basket features an
elaborate hand painted decoration of white and purple
Peruvian lilies, dragonflies and butterflies that was
created by Fenton designer Martha Reynolds (this
particular basket is signed on its side by Fenton
decorator Sunday Davis). The 12 Fenton family signatures
are on the underside of the basket along with the New
Century Collection backstamp. The New Century Collection
welcomed the new millennium by highlighting the skills
of Fenton glassmakers and decorators. This basket comes
with a paperback edition of Fenton Glass Especially for
QVC.
