My West Virginia Glass Blendo Collection

If you've ever gone antiquing with me you'll know my latest favorite thing is West Virginia Glass Company's Blendo glass. This was really popular in the 50s-60s and is relatively easy to find now, but it's still tons of fun to collect!

My first set - this started it all! I bought this blue tall diamond pitcher with six glasses, two green, two orange and two purple. Since then a glass was broken and I stumbled upon some more in a Goodwill and bought them so I would never have to worry about not having enough of them!




This one is a small orange juice pitcher with a set of six multi-colored juice glasses, two green, two pink and two orange.







Another juice set, yellow with four yellow juice glasses.

This one is similar to my first, a light green diamond pitcher with four multi-colored glasses, purple, green, pink and yellow. I added a few of my extras to make this a six piece glass set.

This is my tall boy set! Purple pitcher tall and thin and six tall thin glasses. I found another glass like this at the Kenrick Antique Mall and got it along with two bowls for $1.50.

 Peach round pitcher set with six rounded glasses. These were from an estate that had three sets. I bought two of them, including one still in the original box!

Orange round pitcher and six drinking glasses.

This is a set I pieced together. I bought the glasses on a whim at the Great Western Antique Mall. Then later on I bought the round yellow pitcher at Kenrick Antique Mall on sale and put them all together!

My first non-pitcher buy. I found this salad bowl, salt & pepper shakers and oil & vinegar cruet set in New Mexico when I went there on vacation in May of 2009.

This is the pitcher set I bought in the box. Blue round pitcher and six glasses.

A small juice pitcher and six glasses in green.

Getting into the fun stuff! I found this purple martini shaker and six shot glasses at the Big Bend Antique mall. I was so stoked! It's a little rougher than I buy things normally, but I really liked it.

An Ebay find. I actually question if this is West VA Glass since there isn't any gold edges or rims... but it is pretty! Light red pitcher with no handle, stir stick and six cordial glasses.

I also found this little gem on ebay. Sometimes it's easier to find really difficult items this way. It's not as fun, but it is neat to see what's out there. This is an orange pedestal pitcher and four mini wine glasses.

Yellow salad bowl and six small bowls. This is also one I question if it's West VA Glass. Most of the bowls I've found were like the purple salad bowl above, flared out at the top, down to a narrower bottom.


I'm starting to run out of room now! All my cabinet space at the top of the cabinets are taken and an entire cupboard too! I'm going to need more shelves...
