Hilery, Can you tell me about the Williamsburg Reproductions by Blenko sold at the Williamsburg Inn gift shop and catalogs? What should I pay - where do I find?
Elizabeth Dolan
Elizabeth, Blenko has made Williamsburg Reproductions on two occasions. The Blenko Project www.blenkoproject.org web site contains an extensive collection of Blenko Glass catalogs on page 15 I found the photo and info below. Williamsburg Reproductions can be purchased on line from a Glass / China Replacement Group. We would recommend Replacements LTD. Dean Six ( WV Glass Museum) is associated with this replacement group, we've yet to hear a negative comment from folks who purchase from Replacements, LTD.
Blenko Glass made a re reproduction of the Williamsburg Glass a few years ago. These glasses can sometimes be found at the Milton Flea Market and in local antique/glass shops. The cost is much less than the vintage 30s Reproduction.
We have a blog friend Sam Tyree who owns 50 assorted sizes and he is asking $17 @ for his reproduction glasses.. If you have an interest in Sam's glass send a note to theblenkoproject@aol.com with your contact information and we'll forward the same to Sam.
You ask about a fair price, I believe the Replacements LTD price to be fair.
Thank you for writing , for reading the blog and for purchasing Blenko Glass. Blenko Glass is made in USA.

I believe that Blenko once again has the contract to make the Colonial Williamsburg reproductions.
