If you are looking for Fenton glass, you can usually find items on offer on ebay . Frank L Fenton and his brother John founded the Fenton Art Glass Co in 1905 in Martins Ferry Ohio, initially as a glass decorating company. In Jan.1907 the company moved to its newly-built glassworks in Williams- town and began making its own glass. One of the first to make Carnival Glass, Fenton flourished and survived all the ups and downs of the depression years and the war years, and was a thriving business for over 100 years. The company was restructured in 2007 and hopefully it will survive for many more years.
