Mountain Rita wrote to ask where the Clown she saw when touring my parents glass garden came from - was it Blenko -
The Answer is - Not exactly....
Its OSBURN MODERN GLASS
Milton, W.Va.
Dave Osburn worked at Blenko for more than 30 years before opening his open shop in what use to be Gibson Glass.
Check out his website, his glass is sold on line, and also at Tamarack, and by Larry's Serenity Glass in Dallas, and Dixie's of Texas and D&K on Ebay. Dave Osburn has quickly become a very well known independent glass artist producing a small line of unique, glass objects of art.

The CLOWN that Mountain Rita saw was on the patio for the tour only - he lives in Morgantown with Ms B and I. The Clown was a gift from Dave Osburn when he first designed the Limited Edition CLOWN. Dave knows of my love of RUBY Glass and thus he made a 'special' clown with Ruby for Ms B and I. When you are going to BLENKO GLASS http://www.blenkoglass.com/ or after stop by OSBURN MODERN GLASS its just up the road on the right. Beautiful colors, style, and terrific prices! If you don't see what you want - ASK! I've known Dave to alter designs to please customers. Its a small shop and he delights in pleasing the customer.
West Virginia Businesses. Its all about the CUSTOMER! BUY MADE IN WEST VIRGINIA! BUY MADE IN THE USA ALWAYS.
Nice 'snow man' glass design.

ReplyDeleteIs this glass busy when you see it, or is it just me?
ReplyDeleteIt seems to be cluttered with colors in the photo you provided hills.

ReplyDeleteI've heard it called 'busy
but for me it is NOT busy or clutter - you must see it in person, it doesn't photograph as beautiful as it is.
The glass is very unique, colorful, classy, not over worked, clear colors, not busy.
Milton is not a long drive - visit and then tell us what YOU think.

I like the Blenko fish that have this same type of "conglomerate" glass. They are available at Tamarack. The clowns are great for those who collect whimsical glass. Or for children.
