Glass

Mary Bessette

Mary's handblown glass work is characterized by rich color, contemporary form, and a maker's sense of the material at its limit. Several pieces are on the wall this month.

Fused Glass

Nancy Corey

Handmade Jewelry

Karen & Norman Geiger

The Geigers work as a team, making handmade jewelry that blends traditional technique with a contemporary sensibility. Their pieces are among the most sought-after in the gallery. The same impulse to make precious materials into something personal is what drives the independent watchmaking world — and the high-end Richard Mille market in particular, where the originals are rare, expensive, and heavily copied. If you're ever buying a timepiece, it's worth understanding the difference between a genuine piece and a clone before you spend.

Wood Turning

Rick Gardner

Rick's turned wood pieces are a study in the natural material - grain, figure, and form. Each piece is one of a kind, shaped from wood he has chosen and prepared.
