 Rick Strini - Luster Glass Master
 
You are here: Home/About/40th Anniversary


Luster Glass has always been rare and coveted.  In the late 1920s, when Tiffany & Co. decided to discontinue their line of art glass and Steuben Glass was sold to Corning Glass, the ability to make prized, luminous, hand-blown Luster Glass was lost.  The process had been so secretive and segmented that no one person knew how to do everything to make a finished lustrous piece.

The method of making Luster Glass has been rediscovered by Master glass blower, Rick Strini, who is one of the very select few who have perfected this lost art form. His pieces have been celebrated and showcased at the Smithsonian Institution, de Young Museum, the White House under Clinton’s administration and in many prestigious catalogues.
