About the Item

Contemporary American glass artist Joe Cariati's Petite Glass Decanter Pairs, consisting of four pieces, is quintessentially modern in both function and style, showcasing a purity of form, elegant lines, and graceful curves. His work is entirely 'free blown,' a traditional Venetian glass blowing technique that relies on human skill rather than molds to shape vessels from start to finish. He begins the process by gathering a thick, honey-like amount of molten glass on a blowpipe. Air is blown into the pipe to form a bubble, which is then layered with pre-heated color and additional glass until the required amount is collected. At the glassblower's bench, where most of the shaping occurs, Joe expertly molds the material into the final vessel. Due to the rapid cooling of the glass, it must be frequently reheated in a 'reheat chamber' to stay malleable for shaping. A distinctive feature of Joe's method is the use of a 'punty,' a solid rod to which the glass is transferred for further refinement of the vessel's neck, body, and foot. This technique allows for the creation of unique features such as the elegant necks of the Angelic Bottles and the signature 'T-top' lips of the Decanters, which cannot be replicated by machines or molds. After the vessel is shaped, it is removed from the punty and placed in an annealing oven to cool slowly overnight, enhancing its durability and preventing breakage. The next day, each piece is further refined in the cold working studio, where it is precisely ground with a diamond lapidary machine to ensure a perfectly flat base. This meticulous hand-finishing process sets Joe's work apart from mass-produced glassware. Each piece is signed and dated on the bottom. These are made to order pieces and will ship directly from the artist's studio. Shown in the first photo, from left to right: Ice Blue Teardrop Petite Decanter (19.75” H x 6.75” W), Ice Blue Low Arc Decanter (9.5"H x 8.75” W), Whisky Straight Cone Decanter (22” H x 5” W), Whisky Low Round Decanter (11.5” H x 8.5” W) About the artist: Born in 1971 in Seattle, Washington, Joe Cariati showed an early passion for glass and sculpture, leading him to study at prestigious institutions like Pilchuck Glass School, San Francisco State University, Haystack Mountain School, Penland School of Crafts, and briefly at Ohio State University. His artworks have been featured in major exhibitions such as "Subtexture" in San Francisco, "Painting With Light" in Palos Verdes, and "20/20 Vision" at the Museum of American Glass in New Jersey, reflecting his significant impact on contemporary crafts. In 2003, Joe founded the Los Angeles Glass Center, where he continues to perfect his skills and expand his creative limits as a glassblower, designer, and teacher in his studio. Joe's creations are included in esteemed collections like the Museo Italo Americano in San Francisco and the Museum of American Glass in New Jersey, as well as in private and corporate collections, including Banana Republic / Gap Incorporated. He has received numerous accolades, such as the Modesto Lanzone Award and a nomination for the Saxe Award, and has been a vital educator, teaching at California State University Fullerton and various schools worldwide. His work and perspectives have been highlighted in leading publications including Artweek, Bon Appetit, Elle Decoration, House Beautiful, Town and Country, and Vogue. Joe's influence continues to inspire both emerging and established artists through his innovative approach to glass art and sculpture.

Barry Entner Triangle Solids Glass Sculpture, 2014

Barry Entner Triangle Solids Glass Sculpture, 2014

By Barry Entner

Located in New York, NY

Contemporary American artist Barry Entner's Triangle Solids Glass Sculpture is created with consideration of each individual piece as paint strokes that, once assembled, becomes the desired composition. He doesn't make these using traditional blown glass techniques. For the past 15 years, Barry has developed a method of using steam pressure, produced by way of inserting a wet cherrywood cone into solid hot glass, to “blow” air into the pieces. This allows him to create shapes and forms that are unique within the art glass world, and are “other worldly,” as is sometimes described. This sculpture is signed and dated. Measurements below are for the total overall size; small triangle is 3.25" diameter x 19.75" height, medium triangle is 3.25" diameter x 21.75" height and large triangle is 3.25" diameter x 23" height. About the artist: Barry Entner was born on November 1, 1959 in Brookline, Massachusetts. In the late 1970s, Barry attended Tulane University, New Orleans, Louisiana, where he studied developmental psychology, cultural anthropology and philosophy. He also began to study glass sculpture under Gene Koss...
