I was thinking about hanging grand chandeliers over the canals of
Venice. I thought, why not go to four countries with great glass
traditions and blow chandeliers with both American glassblowers
and glass masters from each of the countries? In the end the chandeliers,
made from thousands of individual parts and representing the work
of hundreds of glassblowers, would be sent to Venice, the Wizard
of the Sea, the most mysterious and secretive city of all. |
