How it Works

The process that creates this artistic glassware is truly unique. They crush recycled glass, add special pigment, and melt the combination overnight. The artisan then pours the molten glass into molds specially designed. The craftsman then uses a special torch, keen eye for detail, and artistic sensibility to finish each piece. From crushed glass to final art takes three days. Each piece is hand made, one at a time. Nothing is automated, which means you get truly unique pieces.
