Glistening Woods Fawn
The "Glistening Woods" collection...Softly shaded figurines
cloaked in
'SNOW' designed by Stacy Williams,
capturing the pristine look of a
blanket of fresh snow in a "Glistening Woods".
The popular fawn mould has been a prized item for collectors for
several years.
This "Glistening Woods" pattern was first presented for the 2007
Christmas season.
Under that "blanket of snow", the fawn is delicately 'air-brushed' using soft pinks and beige tones.
While White
"Fawn spots" on the back, define the tiny critter.
Face and head details include, black eyes, with white highlights, black eyelashes,
a pink nose, and pink shading inside the ears.
Each item is hand Painted and signed by the talented Fenton factory Artist,
CA HALL (Christina
Hall).
Fawn measures approximately 3 3/4" long,
2 1/8" wide, & 3 15/16" tall.
This is a 'solid pour' piece of glass.
The figurine is heavy enough NOT to be easily knocked over;
thus the solid pour Fenton figurines have been popular for (grand) parents to give their children,
to start the young collectors loving the AMERICAN MADE ART GLASS...
***DESIGNERS' NOTE*** Yes...a "cluster" would be a stunning statement !!!
HURRY ONLY TWO (2) LEFT !!!
Try at least two (2) together (facing one another).
Those of us who live in "deer" country;
know that's generally how you see these beauties...
NOTE: Each item is individually
hand painted, so
no two will be exactly alike. We
often picture
multiple items, to highlight these
these differences.
The price shown is for one (1)
item, only..!
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.
