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.

Why not focus some space to the designers who came to West Virginia in the 70s for the Glass in The Factory exhibit held in Huntington Museum of Art? Lipkosky was only one of 10 now very famous designers who came at the invitation of Joel P Myers who left Blenko to found the Chicago School of Glass Arts. Chuck P.
What does this have to do with Blenko Glass? I am new and want to learn about Blenko, what to collect, how to know if its good or will grow in value. Last couple of days there is no real info here. Pete M. Can anyone suggest another blog or source of info?

There is a connection, if you read this blog you know Marvin Lipkosky worked 3 weeks as a guest designer at Blenko Glass in the 70s.
So will Marvin write a post about his trip?
The adventures at the International Glass Society?
Happy New Year
Happy Valentine (almost) Day!
Thank you.
Did Lipkosky make glass at Blenko do you have photos of the glass?
I'd love to own a piece.
