Ron Hinkle never worked for or with Blenko Glass. Blenko Glass gift shop does on occassion have a couple smaller pieces of his art glass available for purchase in the gift shop. Hinkle worked for Louie Glass in Weston prior to opening his own shop.

For a decade or two he has been an indepdent glass maker. He's a devoted husband and father.
All of West Virginia is proud of Hinkle Glass!
Hinkle was recently honored with a showing of his glass at the WV Cultural Center ( http://www.wvculture.org/ ).
Hinkle's website ( http://www.hinklesglass.com/ ).
Note: Hinkle 's lamps are works of art!
You'll want to visit the shop, its located in Buchannon, WVa .

  1. Louie Glass wasn't in Weston.
    It was in Buchannon, I am 100% certain of this.
    Also Hinkle is over rated
    and over prices, it seems everyone the WV Cultural Center decides to honor becomes an instant celebrity.
    What about Fostoria, Cambridge? Gentile?
    Who is promoting these companies?

    Louie Glass, Weston, WV, not Buckhannon. Sorry, but you're wrong on this one.
