OSBURN MODERN GLASS DESIGN in a swirl of color combinations, more beautiful when seen with the naked eye.
#3 Blenko Glass photo taken during the Festival of Glass by Phani.
These photos were taken by Phani our Texas blog friend. These are samples of Osburn Modern Glass. Dave Osburn worked for more than 2 decades at Blenko Glass
when he left to open his own studio he was the foreman at Blenko Glass. Osburn designed and signed many items of glass while at Blenko. He worked with Richard Blenko
to design a couple of the WV Birthday Pieces.
When time permits stop by Osburn Glass. Dave is still small enough to allow for special request - he recently made wine glasses for my Mother, and a challis for
a local church. If you don't see what you want - or have something 'special' in mind. Ask Dave if he can make the item.
The prices at Osburn Glass are much lower than we as Blenko Collectors are accustom to making.
Osburn Glass and Hinkle Dying Art Glass are two of the most well known art glass studio in West Virginia.
Osburn Glass is up the road from Blenko glass - about 1/2 mile. Watch for signs.

we visited osburn glass last week
nothing pictured was visable
all the glass was very busy with colors
I went for another of the WV Birthday Piece from Osburn. I plan to go forward with the Osburn Glass Birthday Pieces.
Suggest to Osburn he do more solid colors.

This should show the BD glass at the Osburn facility and ofcourse Mr. Osburn behind the counter and waiting for the glass to be bought. I am not sure if they are still available but you sure can make the call and he would be happy to make one for you. I reserved and bought #3 for my gf.
