Shopping For Blenko

I often hear folks say that they can't find Blenko when they visit local antique shops or antique shows. They say the best place to find Blenko Glass is on eBay. I find one-third of my glass at antique shops, one-third at antique shows and flea markets, and one-third on eBay. On eBay you can find a wide variety of Blenko Glass, but I have more luck searching for pieces that are not listed as Blenko. The same goes at flea markets and shops. One tip for folks who regularly attend antique shows or flea markets, let the dealers know what you are looking for. Here in Dallas we have Buchanan's Antique Show and we have several dealers who are looking for us. Give them as much detail as you can, but more importantly buy the pieces if they find them for you.


Here are several pieces that dealers found for us.




Here are Ruby Air Twist Wine Goblets that were misidentified at an Antique Shop
