Heart of Glass - Blenko Glass

Blenko Glass is a West Virginia treasure that spans generations. Nothing symbolizes the state of West Virginia better or more beautifully than Blenko Glass. We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Over the years many Glass Cats have been created - door stopper, small ( affordable critters) cats,
a decanter designed by Wayne Husted ( highly collectible) and most recently the water bottle
Cats ( We were told 3-4 of these are available in the Blenko Gift Shop.

       As you know if you follow this blog - Im a dog person - ONE dog for 17 years.  The infamous Miss B.   Well,  Ms B passed away on July 4 2019.   On July 5th I discovered this Russian Blue cat ( I call her,  Zoya) in my yard- she had given birth to two little black fur balls.   
      Since July 5th,  I've been feeding the family,  and searching for the owner.   The ' neighborhood story' seems to be the owner moved to Charlotte.   So now I'm officially a Cat Person ( one who is allergic to cats - so this family will be outdoor cats ) until adoptive parents are found.  
      If you, or your friends are CAT Folks - the whimsical Cat Water Bottle would be an ideal Xmas gift.  You'll want to phone Blenko Glass asap.
