Handcrafted, each glass object is unique
If you order a SAILOR, please consider that every SAILOR is an individual, no one looks like the other. When making a SAILOR, Pawel keeps reinterpreting the idea. Thus, on the one hand, the sculpture’s appearance has developed over the years, and on the other, its shape and colours change with each individual production process. But don’t worry – we will contact you and send you photos to make sure you are completely satisfied with your SAILOR. However, the complete design of the object remains in the hands of the artist. Please understand that it is not possible to place an order based solely on the customer’s specifications.
The sail is decorated with an overlay engraving. Overlay engraving is an old, laborious glass finishing technique that requires a lot of time and the highest precision. For this purpose, a base glass is first coated with a layer of colored glass. Then this layer of paint is removed from the base glass with an engraving device. The depth of the picture is created by the varying thickness of the layer of colored glass that has been left.
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.
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.
