Handblown Glass Ornaments

About the Artists

The Blue, Green and Red ornaments are hand-blown by Morgan Peterson. Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, Morgan is a graduate of Massachusetts College of Art and Design with a dual degree in 2006. Upon completion of her degrees, she relocated to Seattle, WA to pursue a career in the arts and to continue her education and advancement in the arts focusing on glass. Morgan has worked for many notable artists including Buster Simpson, Bruce Mau and is a full-time team member for Dale Chihuly. She is heavily involved with Pratt Fine Arts and Pilchuck Glass School not only as a member of the staff but also as in instructor. Her work has developed inside and outside these industrial spaces into a unique system of metaphor and imagery based on the themes of satire through pop culture and addiction. 

The Multi Color, Gold and White ornaments are hand-blown by Emmanuel Aguilera-Santos. Originally from Veracruz, Mexico he now calls Seattle, Washington home.  Emmanuel is currently focused on designing works of art that honor his Mexican heritage while incorporating traditional Venetian style.  His attention to detail and focus on fluidity combine traditional glassblowing techniques with years of independent and professional practice to make him a sought-after artist in the vibrant Northwest glass community. Emmanuel is a full-time team member at Chihuly Studio.

Making a Difference

Points to Note:

The ornaments are all individually handblown and therefore may have variations in size, color and shape. The ornament purchased will not look identical to the one shown in the images.
