GOODWOOD REVIVAL
It started with an invitation of the Borowski brothers in September 2018 to exhibit their glass art at the renowned Goodwood Revival Festival in England. Besides their masterpieces, they developed the object RACER especially for this occasion and brought it with them to Sussex.
The Goodwood Revival is a three-day festival that has been held annually at the Goodwood Circuit, Sussex, England since 1998. It is a race involving road racing cars and motorcycles that competed during the original phase of the circuit (1948-1966).
Most of the people on the festival grounds dress in 1950’s and 1960’s fashion. It is one of the most popular car races in the world and the only event in Great Britain that recreates the golden era of motor sport from the 1950s and 1960s.

A Fusion of Tradition, Craftsmanship and Innovation
Exclusive glass art from the Borowski glass factory
Each object shown here reflects the craftsmanship of our glassmakers. What appears lighthearted, playful, and full of color is in fact created through a demanding and often physically challenging production process. Today, only a small number of people and glass studios worldwide still master the traditional art of glassmaking.
At the Borowski Glass Studio, nearly all known techniques of hot and cold glassworking can be applied. This exceptional range of possibilities allows our artists to continuously develop new ideas and bring even highly ambitious, experimental visions to life in glass.
The brothers Stani-Jan, Wiktor, and Pawel Borowski learned to work with the blowpipe and molten glass from the ground up. While Wiktor primarily oversees sales, Pawel and Stani-Jan still work daily at the furnace in the glass studio themselves.
As each object is mouth-blown and traditionally handcrafted, slight variations in color, shape, and size are unavoidable. Small air inclusions in the glass are characteristic features of genuine handcrafted studio glass and should not be regarded as flaws, but rather as signs of its individual production process.

ART OBJECTS
The art of being a real Borowski
The objects of the premium collection Art Objects possess a special value for collectors and art enthusiasts. The exceptional sculptures of this collection are all intricately crafted, brilliantly colored, and uniquely elegant. Each of them is a handmade, personally signed work by the artists Pawel or Stani Jan Borowski.
What all ART OBJECTS have in common are the extraordinary stories that they interpret - and their individuality: each Art Object is a valuable original that contains all the art of the Borowski brothers. The works, produced in small series, are unique in their own right. No PRINCE has a truly identical doppelganger, each LOVE MESSENGER is unique in its color scheme and each RETRO CAR interprets its theme in its own way.
You will receive the exclusive works of art from the ART OBJECTS collection together with a certificate from the Borowski glass studio.
