People are drawn to glass art because each piece is individually hand made and unique in and of itself. In addition, little has changed in the craft since it’s origination, meaning a piece created by a glassblower has been made with almost identical tools and methods to that of the ancient artisans. The medium allows a glassblower to take clear glass and through a process of heat and tool manipulation, breathe life, color and energy into it.
Kingston Glass Studio and Gallery specializes in the production of vessels and functional pieces such as glasses, ornaments or interior design elements. Aside from production, they also have a large variety of high end pieces that are created by skilled artisans to fit public, commercial and personal spaces.
The owners, Alexi Hunter and Mariel Waddell Hunter, create pieces that draw from their unique backgrounds; the countryside where Alexi was raised, and warmth of the Caribbean where Mariel grew up. Our artists truly love their craft, and it is made evident in the high quality of items with which they produce.
