Made and designed by the hugely talented and acclaimed American glass artist, Janis Miltenberger, who has the gift and enormous skill to form her medium - glass, as fluidly and freely as a painting on canvas with colours and shapes. Each is a unique piece having a variation in colour form and expression, typically offered in art galleries as one of a kind item, we have had the opportunity to acquire them from a private collector, so they are grouped here as a set.

Height ranges from 10.25 to 9.5 inches.
Signed "J. Miltenberger" by the artist, to the base.

About the artist:
Janis Miltenberger is most recognized for her use of glass as an evocative medium.
About four decades ago Miltenberger first studied clay in college, during which time she was introduced to glass blowing by becoming an apprentice to Richard Marquis. However, discovering the art of lampworking at Pilchuck Glass School was the technique that combined her narrative style within a sculptural form.

Miltenberger’s glass work is included in many private collections. She both teaches and exhibits work internationally. See less
