Jane D'Arensbourg began working with glass early in her career, inspired by the unique properties of the medium, particularly as a vehicle to capture light and energy. She launched her glass jewelry line in 2002 with the goal of designing pieces that are functional art—sculptural, interesting, and meant to be as beautiful in the home as they are while being worn. Her process starts with raw, durable, borosilicate glass rods that are transformed with a torch free form. Using heat and gravity to shape the glass, the artist handcrafts one-of-a-kind sculptural jewelry. Jane D'Arensbourg has exhibited her artwork and jewelry in museums and galleries internationally. Her work can be found in esteemed stock lists from New York to Japan as well as in the permanent collection of The Museum of Art Design, New York.
