Fine Craft Shows at Chautauqua July 12–14 & August 9–11, 2024
These solid glass sculptures have individual interior parts that are hand-built, assembled on the punty, and encased in clear glass. No molds or paint is used. The pieces are hand-shaped while hot, with either cork paddles or graphite pads. All hand faceting and coldwork is done using high-speed diamond wheels. The sculptures contain glass, glass powders and frit, precious metals, and some gemstones.
