Bayliss - Blenko Designer 2007

The West Virginia Birthday - Blenko will be available in less than 15 days. This item is produced yearly. This year West Virginia will celebrate its 144th BIRTHDAY and once again BLENKO GLASS will be making (144 only) a VERY SPECIAL BLENKO ITEM.

The Bayliss Design Team has designed one of the most lovely 'BIRTHDAY PIECES' you can find photos on the BLENKO Company website and also on the Blog.

The designer/ artist pictured above describes the vase as a salute to West Virginia's blue skies and winding rivers. Two upward reaching clover spirals wrap around a sky form reminiscent of rounded hills and mountains in a gesture of freedom and joy.

2007 is a great year to START A NEW ' BIRTHDAY COLLECTION ' - Start with 2007 and go forth. If you later decide to look for the others (80-2006 ) that's OK but you need not.

2007 can be YOUR NEW BEGINNING! This item is a great place to start.

I hope to see you all at the Blenko Visitors Center- look for the advertisement in the newspaper for times and date - but know you need to be there a couple hours before the announced opening time - - the line is usually long!

This is a much anticipated BLENKO COLLECTOR ITEM!

Note: This item is small enough to ship or travel with - it is an excellent souvenir of West Virginia or American travel

after all BLENKO IS MADE IN THE UNITED STATES by West Virginia Craftsmen. The finest.
