A pair of Husted designed vases. On the left is a Blenko #5824-L in Amethyst with it's smaller version a Blenko # 5824-S in Turquoise. Both of these arrived pretty dirty from their previous owners but cleaned up nicely. Simple forms that Blenko colors just make outstanding and a pleasure to enjoy in a sunny spot.
Hope you enjoy too,

THESE TWO COLORS BELONG TOGETHER.
ReplyDeleteBRUCE HAS BLENKO EVER TRIED TO COMBINE THEN IN ONE PIECE?

Hi Ms. Rita,
ReplyDeleteI also like the color combination as well. It is very pleasing and I had seen an example that Blenko had made in the Eason Eige and Rick Wilson reference book on page twenty. You will find a bowl that Blenko did that has a amethyst rim that fades into the turquoise bowl. I mentioned this color combination to Richard Blenko several years ago at a reception and asked if Blenko might consider that in the future. As of yet I have not seen any effort to bring this pleasing combination back into production.
We can only hope it might return.
