Studio glass

Studio glass refers to individually crafted glass artworks made by artists within their personal studios, rather than mass-produced in factories. This movement began in the mid-20th century, emphasizing artistic expression, innovative techniques, and unique pieces. Artists often use traditional glassblowing, casting, or lampworking methods to create beautiful, functional, or decorative objects like vases, sculptures, and ornaments. Studio glass highlights craftsmanship, creativity, and the personal vision of the artist, making each piece one-of-a-kind. It represents a convergence of art and craft, elevating glass from utilitarian material to a fine art form.
