Since the 1930s and up to the present, the Fenton Art Glass
Company, of Williamstown, West Virginia, has produced beautiful
glass baskets in a huge variety of styles, colors, and patterns. In
these two new volumes, over 880 known varieties of Fenton baskets
are each carefully described, with their individual ware numbers,
color, size, decoration, date, and current value, and are
individually shown in beautiful color photos. The patterns are
presented alphabetically. This volume has the patterns from
Acanthus to Hummingbird. A companion volume has the patterns
Innovation to Wisteria and the numbered patterns. Information on
the talented glass workers who made the baskets, handles, and
pattern decorations are identified. Special markings are described,
listed, and dated for easy identification. With these complete
references now available, the identification of Fenton glass
baskets is possible for the first time and collecting them will be
a gratifying pleasure. These two books are published to coincide
with the hundredth anniversary celebration of the Fenton Art Glass
company in 2005.
