Who is Fetty of Fenton?

Hilary,

My Mom collects a retired Fenton worker 'Fetty' she recently passed and I have

boxes of Fenton by Fetty. Can you give me some idea of value, and also more info about Fetty than I'm finding on Fenton website?

Carol,

My friend Shorty Finley introduced me to Fetty several years ago. The Blenko Connection - Fetty worked at Blenko before moving to Fenton- was of interest.

Fetty came out of retirement to make the Coal Bowl Trophy ( www.fentonarglass.com ). Fenton allows master glassworkers to sign their work. Fetty for years signed and now does special pieces for Fenton.

The Bronze Look ( www.thebronzelook.com ) in Princeton has a large collection of Fetty designed glass - you might ask Randolph for help with placing value on your Moms collection.
