Southold, NY (PRWEB) February 27,, garden sculpture, 2006 --
www.KnobsHingesandMore.com is happy to offer Objects of Art by
Tracy Glover Studios.The ageless art of glass blowing is being
energized by artisan Tracy Glover, who breathes new life into
the medium with innovative talent, studied skill and a healthy
reverence for tradition.
The Rhode Island-based glass blower is the designer and creator
of the Tracy Glover Collection - an elegant family of
handcrafted, garden sculpture, table lamps, floor lamps and vases. A study in
understatement, Ms. Glover's creations speak to any d้cor.
Ms. Glover employs Venetian glass techniques, choosing glass
with vivid, ultra-rich colors like aurora, plum, celery,
tourmaline and steel blue. These striking hues take on a new
dimension of vibrancy when combined with neutrals. This drama of
contrast is one of Ms. Glover's signatures.
Each lamp and vase ordered is individually produced at the
artist's industrial studio. Mass production does not exist. The
glass blowing process begins, garden sculpture, only when an order is placed, not a
second sooner, promising the buyer a one-of-a-kind, garden sculpture, result.
Subtle variations in pattern and color are a natural occurrence
in the process. Therefore, the artist recommends ordering pairs
of lamps at the same time, to ensure a good match.
With a, garden sculpture, degree, garden sculpture, from the prestigious Rhode Island School of
Design, Tracy Glover's path has taken her across the world. From
Manhattan to Murano, Italy, this bold innovator has patiently
crafted her signature elegance. It is her honor to have been
selected as the, garden sculpture, first female glassblower at Val Saint Lambert
Crystal factory in Belgium, a revered facility nestled in a 14th
century convent.
A world away, both literally and figuratively, her creations
have appeared on The White House Christmas tree, and have a
permanent place at The Clinton Library in Little Rock and the
Detroit Institute of Art in Michigan. Ms. Glover's lamps are
sprinkled like jewels in the Spa Tower Corridor and the Baccarat
Room at the famed Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. We are also happy
to offer Michael Healy Designs finely sculptured door knockers
and door bell ringers.Michael Healy studied metal sculpture at
the, garden sculpture, University of Notre Dame where he learned century-old bronze
casting techniques which became the foundation for his artistic
expression. Michael's artistic style is very identifiable, garden sculpture, . He is
known for his ability to skillfully combine quality materials
into sculptural, yet functional forms. He is particularly noted
for his talent for turning an everyday object into a unique work
of art. His most recognizable works are this series of unusual
Door Knockers and Doorbell Ringers. Michael Healy has
prolifically sculpted over one hundred door sculptures. His door
sculptures depict interests such as gardening, cooking, outdoor
life, the Southwest, horse-back riding and the seashore.
To ensure consistently high quality at all stages of the metal
casting process, Michael Healy works from his own foundry in
Rhode Island. Michael is assisted by a select group of talented
artisans who handcraft each Door Knocker or Doorbell Ringer.
This personal attention to detail guarantees that every door
sculpture is, garden sculpture, truly special. Michael Healy signs each of his Door
Knockers confirming its authenticity and quality craftsmanship.
A New Twist . . . A Classic Look In the world of decorative
hardware, small changes go a long way. Putting new pulls on
kitchen cabinets or new knobs on dresser drawers is the easiest
way to alter the entire look of a room. With his new line of
hardware, award-winning designer Lewis Dolin brings a world of
experience - and a fresh look - to the decorative hardware
market. Dolin's distinct interior designs and tabletop
accessories have been featured in a wide variety of national and
international publications, including the New York Times,
Interior Design ,Food & Wine and The Home by Susan Szenasy. His
entry into the decorative hardware market is marked by the same
simplicity of design and clean forms that have gained him a
reputation as an original, talented designer.
Bin pulls take a dramatic new look with the Glass Bin Pull
Series and complementary Mushroom Knobs. Both the Bar and Barrel
Series are simple geometric forms with a great deal of
versatility in their application. The Acorn Glass Series is an
elegant turn on a natural form. And the Ceramic Series - King,
Queen, Pawn, and Bishop - brings a clever, new twist to a
classic look. A door has to have hinges and a means of opening
and closing. Add some dash to the required hardware by making
decisions about their look and feel. Choose the warmth of brass
or the strength of a black finish. At the front door, decide to
dress up the doorbell by choosing hardware that adds definitive
character. Decide not to have a doorbell, but select a stylish
door, garden sculpture, knocker instead. Make the front door the first statement
you make for your home. Make your inner doors confirm the
statement.Whether adding a ceramic knob or a gecko cabinet pull;
a glass drawer pull or brass hinges to your kitchen cabinets,
the warmest room in the house takes on the cozy, homey feeling
that is its nature.

something of an adventure ... and fun.Floor registers frequently

grandpa's house. And it's impossible to think of those memories

register, garden sculpture, cover, garden sculpture, reminiscent of those days, and make the warmth in
