Dave Osburn Fish

Fish hand blown by Dave Osburn, each one in unique colors and signed by the man himself.  

Dave-O is a living West Virginia glass legend. He captained a shop in Blenko during through highest productivity years, running a tight ship, and usually relied upon to blown the biggest pieces. His design work and mold sensibility was leveraged at Blenko in designs like his Mardi Gras line, where he brought big, bold dollops of color into the Blenko vernacular. His own studio’s glass is cherished by the folks who shopped there over the years, and Mr. Osburn is responsible for a lot of really great WV glass memories.

Marrowbone Glassworks is a passion project of a couple of pirate exiles from West Virginia’s last handblown glass tableware factory. Marrowbone Glassworks is a public-facing glassblowing studio and retail shop (online and in-person in Huntington, WV) - where the whole point is to reverse the narrative of the death of glass in Appalachia. This region, which once had more than 500 glass factories, has very few left, but we reject the idea that the glory days of West Virginian handmade glass are in the past.
