Description

Named after its founder, Englishman William Blenko, Blenko Glass Company, Inc. started producing stained glass in The usa within the late nineteenth century. It remains one of the crucial few glass factories in america still making up to date hand blown production glass. Recently, collectors have been scooping up Blenko designs from the corporate’s middle years of production, the 1950s and 1960s. Three outstanding designers were answerable for all the design repertoire of that era–Winslow Anderson, Wayne Husted, and Joel Myers. Over 675 color photographs of Blenko glass (courtesy of Blenko Visitors’ Center Museum, the Huntington Museum of Art, and private collections), detailed captions, details about the designers, the never-before-published 1960 catalog, bibliography, and index make this book a valuable reference.
