COMMISSIONS, REPAIRS, & REPLICAS

We often get asked about commissions (custom glass creations), repairing broken pieces, and replicating irreparable works. The truth of the matter is - whether we can fix or recreate it depends on how bad the damage is and / or what it is. The glass medium is complex and we know it well so we would be happy to look at your broken piece and let you know if it is repairable, recreatable, or to conceptualize something new with you!

With that being said, we take very few commissions, and even fewer over summer. The artists we have focus on cremains work as described below and occasional lighting projects! Shoot us an email if you have questions.

Cremains Memorabilia

One of our most frequently asked questions related to custom work is if we create works of art to honor lost loved ones that include cremains (ash). We understand this is not for everyone, but we do accept the challenge and honor of creating something beautiful to help others encapsulate the memory of their loved one in something they can enjoy for years to come. This is something we take great care in the process of creating. We also do not believe in capitalizing in others grief, so you will find our prices reflect what you would find in our gallery or for custom creations for similarly complex shapes and designs. Everything we make in this area is custom and made in collaboration with you, however, we have some standard designs that make sense for this type of work and have become popular over the years.

Orbs:
We tend to create orbs or “paperweights” in two designs. The most popular design we offer is “Eternal Favorite Color,” which includes what is typically the favorite color of the loved one swirled vertically with ash. The second option we do encases just ash swirling vertically in clear glass which has been coined by several customers as “Spirit Rising.” These can range in shape and size but are usually round, starting at the size of roughly a baseball moving up from there. We have also done heart shapes and other various custom objects. Cremains paperweights range from $75 - $250 typically.
Urns:
We make urns to your color and shape preference. They involve a blown vessel of your color choosing with a lid to match. Our most popular design also features a small version of the cremains paperweight described above as a marble on the lid of the vessel. Urn vessels with matching lids start at $325 (versions with the cremains in the lid start at $375).
Pendants:
Some people enjoy having something wearable or a talisman that can be hung or pocketed to appreciate their loved ones memory. Similarly to the above options, we work with you to specify color, shape, and size. Pendants usually range from $50 - $150 dependent on the complexity of design and color set up.
