FENTON ART GLASS
MADE IN THE USA
The Fenton Art Glass Company
was founded in 1905 by Frank L. Fenton and his brother John W. Fenton in an
old glass factory building in Martins Ferry, Ohio.
They began by painting decorations on glass blanks made by other
glass manufacturers. Soon, being unable to get the glass they needed,
they decided to produce their own glass.
The first glass from the new Fenton factory in Williamstown, West
Virginia, was made on January 2, 1907.
During its 106-year history, Fenton introduced the first iridescent
ware (now known as "Carnival glass") as well as classic patterns such as
Hobnail, Burmese and a wide variety of handmade colored art glass as
limited editions.
Sadly, on July 6, 2011, the Fenton Art Glass Company announced that it
would cease production of its collectible and giftware glass
products.
The company had faced financial challenges since its restructuring in
2007, and recent developments combined to force the shutdown of its
traditional glassmaking business.
