How many times do we ask ourselves what to give to our loved ones, friends, work colleagues for moving into an apartment, sister, grandmother for a birthday or anniversary?
There are several reasons that will encourage you to buy a glass object, but first a short story.

So I found several items in my collection that I keep, which were left to me by my mother and aunt who have been gone for a long time. But they are there to remind me of them, to remember where they stood in my parents' house and what was kept there. One small bowl was created, I now know, by the glass blowing technique, it was on the table in my parents' room. Its shape, the smoothness and transparency of the glass remind me of the tenderness and love I had from them as a child. The other is a light blue candy bowl in the shape of a basket and was in a display case that my aunt had and was only used on special occasions. She is beautiful! I also hope that one day my now grown sons will keep some of the items I make just as a keepsake.
Now I know that I have always had a love for glass and that medium, and that's how I discovered a talent that fulfills me as an artist by creating objects with the fusion of glass.
I don't like doing a lot of the same subjects. I like to experiment with glass and the techniques that are available to me because every time it is a new experience and a new surprise. That is why each article is unique and special.
If you didn't know…
Glass is one of the old media and is deeply woven into human history and modern society. It plays an important role in our daily life in various aspects of our life.
We find glass and glass objects everywhere around us, from ordinary glasses, bottles, bowls, vases, plates to glass chandeliers, railings on our balconies and houses. If you just look around you will see countless objects made from this interesting and special medium.
One of the characteristics of glass is that it is a simple material to maintain, it is easy to clean, and its biggest advantage is the possibility of recycling, we can recycle it an infinite number of times without losing its quality.
Apart from the everyday objects made of glass that we use every day, the art of glass goes much deeper when frescoes and stained glass windows are made in churches, and intriguing objects of large vases and other useful objects that reached dizzying values.
Even now, glass has a special value, apart from the fact that it is always a puzzle how such a flat transparent surface can be shaped into various eye-catching shapes, and in combination with the interior and light, we get real magic. But about that in another blog.
That's why if you buy a glass item from me, it will be a unique item that only you have. Its value will increase over time. It can stay in your family for generations, and each item will have its own story and the love and occasion for which it was purchased. It will be an investment in art, because each copy is a work of art. That is why it is an excellent gift, which will be functional, decorative, permanent, unrepeatable.
The pictures are pushed by the two small quibbles I mention.
