Working Directly with the Artist
Commission availability varies based on which artists are currently working in the gallery and their individual workloads. The gallery will match you with the right artist for your piece based on your vision and current availability.
Once paired, your artist will work with you directly throughout the process, including design details, timeline, and payment. This direct connection ensures clear communication and allows each artist to approach the work with their own creative perspective and craftsmanship.
Our studio artists are skilled in blown glass, fused glass, and metalwork.

Memorial Pieces
Some pieces carry more meaning than others.
Some of the most meaningful pieces we create are those that honor a life, a memory, or a moment.
Our artists work closely with you to design a custom piece that reflects your story, whether subtle and symbolic or more personal. Each piece is created with care, intention, and respect for what it represents.
