“A beautiful piece of history that elevates our home with its colorful design!’’
~ Blenko Customer
Highly in demand for over 8 decades, our iconic water bottle has been featured in many magazines, TV appearances, and throughout various online publications.
The classic 384 design was first introduced in 1938 and has been produced at our factory, by hand, almost non-stop since that very first year. At the time, the bottle's design was largely dictated by necessity...
With function before form in mind, it was made to fit into the narrow door shelves of the relatively new “electric icebox”. Today, that electric icebox is known as a refrigerator!
The water bottle’s narrow shape with two pouring spouts and center indentation made for easy handling and fit well in those early refrigerator doors.
Not dishwasher safe.
Citrine - a warm, golden-yellow hue with a rich, sunlit glow.
*Citrine is a striking color so a natural variance of hue occurs with each small batch. Each Citrine piece may have tonal and unique characteristics.
Today, this piece of glassblowing history is commonly used as:
A glass pitcher - to serve drinks or enjoy a cool glass of water.
A lovely flower vase - for a dazzling display of colors.
A decorative piece - to elevate the character of any room.

Why Blenko
Unlike other glass vessels that claim to be "100% handmade" while being mass produced in a factory in China, our glass is TRULY handmade by Appalachian natives from West Virginia on the banks of the Mud River. From start to finish - 100% authentic.
Our Promise
We stand by our products 100% with our Blenko “Love It” guarantee. If you have any issues whatsoever, we'll replace or refund your order, no questions asked!
“There are so many supporters and collectors out there who are just waiting in line to get a hold off a piece that celebrates West Virginias heritage”
"Blenko Glass Company has produced literally millions of hand-blown glass pieces, and the factory tours remain one of the most popular attractions when visiting the company"
“Beautiful blues, greens, oranges, golds, and other colors thoroughly don the family-owned and operated Blenko Glass Company.”
Beautiful blue water bottle! Love everything about it. Gifted it to a friend.

Gorgeous cobalt blue
I’m always thrilled with Blenko pieces. Gave the large cobalt water bottle as a birthday gift; my daughter-in-law’s first Blenko…she absolutely loves it!

I am not a person who typically uses a lot of red in my home decor, but my husband made a ruby water bottle when we took the glassblowing class back in May. I fell in love with the richness and the depth of the color. I ordered the Ruby mini to go with it, and I also have one of the Ruby lanterns. They sit in a cluster on my mantelpiece and I have filled the lantern with greenery. I posted the picture on Facebook and it has gotten well over 100 comments. The Ruby colored glass truly is breathtaking. No matter what you do with it, it is going to be a statement piece.

This is the 5th 384 water bottle I have purchased. It was for my mom. She absolutely loves it!
These are absolutely gorgeous, but you shouldn't show them on rods unless you provide the rods. Not one of your photos shows them installed as you directed, and even is written in a misleading manner that doesn't really tell you that a rod is not provided.
Beautiful product, as always. Sentiment of the cardinal is perfect.
