Vase #607 in Jonquil, Vase #595 in Jonquil and Vase #64D in LemonWith the end of summer only weeks away, keep some of that sunshine in your home by grouping some colorful Blenko glass! Pictured above are some nice vintage 1950's-60's vases designed by Wayne Husted and Joel Myers - both important designers in Blenko's history.
Not familiar with Blenko Glass? A great starting point is The Blenko Project at http://www.blenkoproject.org/ where you will also find the Heart of Glass blog by Hillary Homberg. You can connect with other glass collectors, view some fab pictures of vintage and new Blenko and learn about upcoming events at the factory. Blenko is located in Milton, WV and is one of the few remaining hand-blown glass factories left in the U.S. - they attract thousands of visitors each year to view skilled craftsmen on the observation deck.
