Mexican Art Glass

Having collected depression glass, fine china and art glass for several years, I thought I’d pretty much run the gamut of the things I’d seen that I wanted to collect but this year brought me something new and interesting. Admittedly I don’t know a great deal about it, but I do think its worth exploring and that I’m going to take the time to learn a little more.

I wanted to share my newfound passion with you, and see what you think of it.

My daughter in law was a foreign exchange student in Mexico and drew my attention only recently to the amazing art glass that is produced there.

Galeria Azul is one of her favorite sites to visit and check out the new trends, the amazing artwork of several gifted artists and its rapidly becoming a favorite site of mine as well.

Galería Azul is an art gallery thats found in Cozumel, Mexico. Galeria Azul features the work of a glass artist named Greg Dietrich, who works with engraved glass, blown engraved glass, and uses it to make lamps, night lights, cup racks, key racks and engraved glass vessels that will absolutely leave you wanting more.

Take a walk through the art glass, the wall lamps, the candle lamps and the wide array of things you can purchase for your home or office and see if you don’t agree that the artwork, and the crafting of these folks is just breath taking.

Galeria Azul online is certainly a site worth seeing and may just lead you  into ANOTHER glass collecting passion.
