Heart of Glass - Blenko Glass

Blenko Glass is a West Virginia treasure that spans generations. Nothing symbolizes the state of West Virginia better or more beautifully than Blenko Glass. We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Another "Jug Challenge" from Bruce S

Another "Jug Challenge" from Bruce S
 
Another in the "Jug Challenge" is this older pair I photographed a while back
which is the Charcoal and Crystal handled pair. This time the Blenko #443 is
accompanied by it's smaller version a Blenko #7117. Pure simple forms that bring
form and function together.

I almost didn't make it to the page. Fortunately, I figured out how to navigate through the pop up ad. So glad to see Hillary and Bruce working hard to share BLENKO glass with the world.

I quit reading the blog daily as I could not deal with the pop ups.
Hilery ask the newspaper to cut some of this out.

Greensboro Photo recommendations for where to eat? I don't like sushi or any spice.
