The Glass
Not Just Any Glass
Glass as art is a medium that has held my fascination for decades. The speed at which glass goes from being a solid to a liquid and the level of control needed to make that amazing transformation work in your favor draws me back to my torch for more! Adding to that, the mystery of color creation – well there just aren’t enough hours in the day for all the possible discoveries.
The Cosmic Collection
The reaction to my distinctive color layers is often “It’s like looking into the universe!” Shifting colors in the depths of each piece turns dots of stars into glittering inspiration… Each is uniquely one-of-a- kind with its range of color and depth when viewed.
Borosilicate Glass
Strong enough for Space, delicate enough to wear
Highly durable, borosilicate glass is uniquely impact resistant. Used for the insulation tiles on the nose of the Space Shuttle, this glass is perfect for beautiful, long-lasting jewelry. Tammy’s distinctive color layering techniques showcase a few of the limitless possibilities of this amazingly versatile material.
The Connections Collection
The connection between women who abound in our lives makes us stronger together. Geometrical borosilicate glass is one of the strongest forms of glass known today. Paired with elegant silk, leather, and sterling accents, these striking pieces are the embodiment of the fundamental links and connections that draw us closer together.
This is what things looked like back in approximately 1912 when 112 N Main was the Peterson Saloon – a hopping place in downtown Waupaca, Wisconsin!
