*William J. Blenko, located in Milton, West Virginia, is known for its artistic hand-blown glass. Blenko was born in London, England in 1853. He worked at a glass factory in his youth. In 1893, he emigrated to Kokomo, Indiana, in the US, where he established the first American factory to produce sheet glass for stained glass windows. In 1903, he was forced to close his factory and return to England, due to an economic downturn. Eventually, he started a new company, naming it Eureka Glass Company, and later changing the name to Blenko. The Great Depression soon after decimated the stained glass market and Blenko began to produce stemware and tableware. Blenko Glass Company still produces hand-blown sheet glass for use in stained glass windows, as well as architectural glass. less
