Annie Glass
Annieglass, handcrafted sculptural glass dinnerware, serving pieces, drinkware and accessories, is designed by artist Ann Morhauser of Santa Cruz, California.
Annieglass takes its shape in a fiery kiln at 1350 degrees F, precious metal and color fuse permanently to glass, making the work tarnish and chip-resistant, as well as dishwasher-safe. This technique results in an appearance distinct from blown glass: the product is simultaneously translucent and textured with a unique surface that subtlely retains the imprint of the hands that shaped the mold.
Ann Morhauser's vision has led her to create collections intended to be mixed: not only with one another, but with modem and antique china, porcelain and crystal. Though highly personal, her designs are so simple they blend effortlessly with practically everything else on the table.
Annieglass appeals equally to the home chef and to the professional, both of whom delight in the infinity of possibilities for setting a dramatic table. Every piece of Annieglass carries an engraved signature and the date it was made, guaranteeing authenticity. A collector's item meant to become a cherished heirloom, but definitely not to be saved for special occasions. Black tie or takeout, Annieglass is art for the table to use every day.
