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.

Winslow Anderson


Thanks to Mary McNeilley of Washington Pa. for this photo.

Mary writes that she had several of these bottles, purchased by her Mom in the 50's. Chance would have it that she was lecturing at Marshall University in Huntington a few years ago - and saw a brochure about a HUNTINGTON MUSEUM OF ART display. She made arrangements to go, met Winslow Anderson, learned more about her 'bottles' and became a collector of all things ' Winslow Anderson'.
If you haven't started a BLENKO Collection - or haven't been to the Visitors Center - - - NOW is a great time to go. Angie and Diane have 2 tables of clearance glass (up to 50% off), and the shop is full of wonderful BLENKO, many one of a kind items. Phone 304 743 9081 . hjh
