Photo: A Vintage Blenko Challic engraved by Touch of Glass
Heart of Glass is all about home town, home state, PRIDE. . . and A TOUCH OF GLASS in Hurricane West Virginia is a compliment to most any piece of glass or ceramic.
Martha and Donna are the key players in this operation - they work in a mature landscaped lot complete with water fall, koi pond with hand blown object of art in the center, the entire yard is post card picture perfect. I'd visit often - if only to view the landscape in different seasons.
Donna and Martha repair stain glass windows, they do work for high end NYC folk, as well as for 'drop ins' like me, when I ask them to describe their business Donna said:
"A Touch of Glass, specialists in glass art, uses hand engraving, wheel engraving, sand etching, and screen printing to create products that fill the need for "something special."
Olden crafts, practiced skillfully with patience and pride...producing treasures for today and heirlooms for tomorrow.

Note: When you buy that special piece of BLENKO for the birthday, wedding gift, or wedding party gift, take it to A TOUCH OF GLASS have everything personalized.

Did your puppy's eye heal properly? My wife keeps asking me, thus I am asking you. Only respond if you don't feel violated by the question.

ReplyDeleteA Donna Ball did the glassware for my daughters wedding 20 odd years ago.
She shipped everything from WV to Conn I am almost certain it was her but the address was not the same, did she move the shop?

ReplyDeleteI don't give value to glass - this was a Husted design I think- and if its sandblasted - your glass would be old - and if you are happy with the 2 thousand you paid - then the value was very good, don't ya think?
any other comments?

Hillary; I see the work you put into this blog and really appreciate it. I do wish though that you not put in all of the negative comments by people who don't at least give their name or at least a nickname on your side from TX. Keep up the good work !!!
ReplyDeleteMISMGR - Thank you
ReplyDeleteBlogger is arranged so that unless you use certain words - its fairly auto accepted - I don't mind the
negative - someone said ""if you don't believe the positive or the negative "" I just try to 'show up' each day.
I appreciate you having my back!hjh
