Blenko Glass

The Church Triumphant (South Rose Window - Washington National Cathedral)

Be sure to join WTCI this coming Friday, June 13th for an evening with Richard Blenko, president of Blenko Glass.  If you're familiar with Blenko Glass, you know the beauty and quality produced by this family business.  If you're not familiar with Blenko, take a look at the above photo from the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.  All of the window's glass was hand-made by Blenko artisans.  It's just stunning.  

"The rose window in the SOUTH TRANSEPT has as

its theme The Church Triumphant, with its imagery taken

from the biblical book of Revelation. All of the glass in

this window was manufactured by the Blenko Glass

company of West Virginia." - Description from the National Cathedral Self-Guided Tour brochure
