Kevin O’Grady

This is how Kevin starts each New Year. The trick is to pull the cane down without distortion. Each year has a new design and every bracelet is marked with it. Authenticating it as an original made exclusively by Mr. O’Grady.

“I am an independent glass artist who works borosilicate glass rods over an open flame, often called a lamp worker or a torch worker. Borosilicate is more commonly known as Pyrex and is a very strong and durable glass. The color palette commonly available in borosilicate is very limited and dull. I have perfected mixing techniques that enable me to create vivid and beautiful colors previously unknown in borosilicate glass. Many of my techniques are self-taught.

Each one of my pieces is a one of a kind, signed, hand worked original made solely by me using no apprentices. Primarily known for my glass bracelets, I also make beads, marbles, paperweights, small platters, vessels and sculptural pieces.

I am also well known for my detailed mastering of borosilicate murrine canes. Working glass in a flame is my passion. My inspiration for colors and designs come mostly from nature. Such things as feathers and water as well as flowers and galactic stars can be seen in my work.” ~ Kevin O’Grady
