apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

...there is a delicacy and elegant "edge" to these vessels that distinguish them as a very singular style.

According to Joe's bio, the modern look of his work is achieved through keeping things simple - he writes, "I'm not a "fussy" glass blower, I cannot stand spending time on surface decoration or frilly techniques. For me, the purity and essence of the process of glassblowing is immediate, there is a sense of urgency, the glass must be blown while it's hot! There are no breaks, there is no time to rest, no lull. My approach is to craft the glass quickly and efficiently; clean, pure, simple and beautiful."
