Blenko What to Give the Collector?



Glassdoc,

I want to give my bf a special Blenko gift. His collection is vast, what do I give?

Where do I purchase the gift?

I've looked at Purple Moon, and Vintage Glass he already has all they have.

Cheryl,

West Virginia Museum of Glass in Weston would be my first stop.

They don't sell glass. They do however, have books, and the museum is a treasure trove of WV Glass.

Pina books are also best gifts for collectors.

email theblenkoproject@aol.com and I'll send you a list of sellers I have used and can recommend.
