Artisan Glass Candy Dish
Perhaps inspired by "Joseph and the Technicolor Dreamcoat," Fritz Lauenstein carefully laid stripes of cane glass to make a beautiful design before taking the glass through the rest of the process, which includes stretching it from the ceiling after removal from the furnace, before blowing and making this beautiful dish. We presently have two sizes of the "Joseph" vases and two beautiful "Joseph" candy dishes. Unfortunately, because these are unique items requiring special care, we are presently limiting purchases to in-store pickup.
Flax Pen To Paper is curating a collection of fine glassworks from Fritz Lauenstein. Most pieces are one-of-a-kind from our glassblower artisan friend who works with his wife, June, from his studio on Cape Cod. Fritz's glass blowing work has been shown at museums and his ornaments have hung on the White House Christmas tree but since we know Fritz and June from our many visits to his studio, we're sure you'll find the beautiful works we carry can make a unique gift you won't readily find elsewhere - certainly not on the west coast.
