I have worked with Dale Chihuly since the late 80’s and spent much of the 90’s traveling with him to places including Finland, Ireland, France, Venice and Japan. I am a private art dealer and maintain an inventory of current works. I provide the highest level of personal attention, expertise and service to collectors and institutions that wish to acquire Chihuly’s glass, drawings or site-specific installations.

Some of these are currently available. If you would like to acquire anything, please contact me and we can discuss what would be the best for you and I will provide you with pictures and prices.
