We are Accepting Orders on a Special Piece!!!

By Sharon Fenner

This NFGS owned #8343 oval Opal vase is 8-inches tall and about 5.5-inches wide, making it a perfect vase for decorating. This year Frances Burton created this awesome scene of a Steller's Sea Eagle with an Alaskan backdrop. The scene encircles the vase. The attention to design is incredible.

We are accepting orders for this vase until September 29. The cost of the vase is $189.00, plus shipping charges.

Pre-Convention Event a Success!

By Karen Lemmon

Meet Frank Workman! Frank worked with Mosser Glass to offer NFGS members an opportunity to watch being made - both with the use of moulds by Mosser craftsmen and offhand by Frank.

 

Small groups of members were able to observe Frank creating offhand one-of-a-kind pieces. Frank had some pre-made items available in a silent auction. A couple pictures were captured of Frank making the vase shown below.
