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.

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.

The bottle itself is fine. The one star is to ensure a greater possibility that hard working people will see this. Upon delivery the box was smashed , ripped, basically open. Blenko's shipping methods are garbage , and if you don't feel like playing blame game with blenko, fed ex , or whoever. It's best to just ensure you don't get left with busted merchandise because of someone's else's foolishness.
I sent this to a friend as a gift. I have one as well and they are lovely. Thrilled that my fellow West Virginians create such timeless products. :)
Would buy again. Lovely color
I absolutely love it. Actually I also got an amber one. And, just ordered a light blue one for a gift. They are beautiful!
Use mine all the time and love giving them as gifts!!
