$40.00Blenko Art Glass plum clamshell dish.
Retro modern handmade Blenko glass dish in a form known as Clam Shell. Made in the late 1980’s. Versatile uses include, candle-holder, flower float, incense, catch-all, snack server, ashtrays, etc.
The scarcely seen Blenko color called ‘Plum’ was produced for only four years; in 1967 and again in 1988 to 1990. It’s a beautiful dark regal purple. Blenko’s shades of colors varied slightly from batch to batch because they made their own glass colors, mixed by hand. This causes the shades to differ a bit from batch to batch.
Shown in Blenko catalogs as part 7935. The part numbers begin with the year and end with the design number. This form was designed in 1979, design number 35. This piece dates to 1988-1999.
Thick, heavy handmade vintage glass contains straw marks and small trapped air bubbles, expected in Blenko glass. Weighs 1¾ lb and measures 7½” long, 6″ at widest. In excellent condition.

Weighs 4 pounds, 10 ounces. Stands 13.25″ at tallest, 4″ square at widest. No damage. Signed, but we cannot make out the etched maker’s mark. See closeup image.
Exceptional dining table centerpiece. Beautiful as a bathtub or window candle too.
