Pitcher
Location 167
Owner: Diane and Jerome Phillips
This glass pitcher was blown by Dominick Labino, an internationally known scientist, inventor, artist, and master craftsman in glass. His studio was in Grand Rapids, Ohio. In 1962, Harvey Littleton and Dominick Labino held the first of two week-long glassblowing workshops in a storage shed on the grounds of the Toledo Museum of Art. Dominic Labino had devised a small, inexpensive furnace in which glass could be melted and worked, making it affordable and possible for the first time for artists to blow glass in independent studios. This was the "birth" of the American Studio Glass Movement. Object from Diane and Jerome Phillips
