The History of the Fenton Art Glass Company (Cont.) |
||
|
|
||
| They began making milk glass (white glass that looks like porcelain) especially hobnail milk glass. Milk glass became Fenton's top-selling line, resulting in the company's expansion. | ||
| In 1968 Rose Presznick asked Fenton's to reproduce some carnival glass for her to sell at her Carnival Glass Museum in Lodi, Ohio, which they did. From this idea the first Fenton collector series in carnival glass was born. | ||
| Carnival glass also entered a new phase of popularity in the 1970's, mostly with collectors. | ||
| Another successful Fenton product was Burmese glass (1970) The glass is opaque, matt, cream shading to light pink at the top. | ||
| Fenton produces sufficient variety every year to keep all their supporters happy. | ||
| The company has been owned and operated by Fenton's since its founding in 1905. | ||
