Q: What types of objects does Arcade produce?

Arcade’s collection centers on sculptural art glass vases and vessels in organic, fluid forms that reflect the natural world. These are works intended not merely to be admired, but to define the rooms they inhabit and to be passed down as objects of enduring cultural significance.

Question 1

What is Arcade?

How are Arcade glass pieces created?

Accepted Answer
