Blenko Glass is a West Virginia treasure that spans generations. Nothing symbolizes the state of West Virginia better or more beautifully than Blenko Glass. We will discuss current and former craftsmen and designers and how important it is that Blenko and West Virginia glass be appreciated and valued by the younger generation.

Heart of Glass Blog - Every Photo Has a Story

Why NOT share your photos with us?
If you have photos of Blenko lamps, ashtrays, figurines, 'items not in the line', or very old BLenko please send your photo and any story you might want to share to theblenkoproject@aol.com.

If you or a family member retired from Blenko, we want your story and photos for the http://www.blenkoproject.org/ , its our goal to feature all retired Blenko employees along with a brief history. If your family member was a finisher, a blower or a 'hotshot' we'll also feature them and their story, their creations with a page of their own.

We'd also like your permission to use all of the above or anything you send in the Heart of Glass Blog, readers want to learn more about BLENKO GLASS.

Our goal is to promote West Virginia made glass, and to record history of Blenko craftsmen Blenko Glass is located in Milton http://www.blenkoglass.com/.
