The pontel on the stopper is rough, but this is normal from where they break it off the stick. Greenwhich Flint Craft (GFC) was a line of glass, produced under it’s own name but was under the umbrella of a larger glassworks called Indiana Glass. GFC was a type of modern design/ art glass line, because Indiana Glass was known for more work aday practical glass and they wanted to expand into the art glass/decor market. Then they hired a man named Tom Connally as their new head designer. Connally answered a job advertisement in the Muncie Press for an assistant glass designer position at IG in 1961. When Arthur Harshman offered him the position, he accepted. He’d never designed a piece of glass but was confident that he could do so. His innate aesthetic sensitivity, boldless creativity, and appreciation of elegant design were his best tools for the job. Vintage Greenwich Flint-Craft is the visual testimony. This Korean War era veteran from Fort Wayne, IN, artist, teacher, set designer, exibits and display creator, was now becomming a glass designer. Tom loved good contemporary art whether in glass, furniture, painting (his favorite style was abstract expressionism), architecture, clothing, etc. He was very proud of GFC and its strong commitment to aesthetics. He was an admirer of Scandinavian Design. His GFC line was only in production for 3 years, beginning in 1969 and ending in 1972.
