glass

handmade pieces cast in glass with love

scent vessels


Each fragrance i create is paired with a unique, handmade glass vessel. These vessels are cast individually, shaped to hold and protect the fragrance they contain.

Together, scent and glass form a single experience—meant to be lived with, touched and felt.

cura combs


i missed the way a lover used to comb my hair, so i created these combs to disentangle and transform my grief into a beautiful tool for connection.

they are meant to be used lovingly: slowly, gently, and intentionally as an act of care for oneself, between lovers or loved ones.

i am learning that so much about life is about letting go. the materiality of these combs in glass makes them both enduring and fragile. holding them—using them—is a reminder to consider what we hold on to, what we let go of. how we hold ourselves. how we hold others.

material


I work in glass for its unique ability to hold and share light—its connection to the divine. i am so captivated by the way it captures and expresses duality: of light and shadow, strength and fragility. these qualities help me to make sense of what it means to be alive in this brief, beautiful existence.

I intentionally work in glass because of  it’s earthly materiality and sustainability qualities. The majority of the processes contain aspects of recyclability: the glass itself, the investment material, and the model making materials.

i love that glass  forces us to move with consideration. it’s what makes it so precious. And even still, if we are careful—we can break it. even if we didn’t mean to, even if we tried our best. you pick up the pieces and decide what comes next.
