Description

These hand-blown glass oil and vinegar cruets with black/white zebra pattern will be the dream team of your kitchen! An incredible addition to your home, this eye-catching pair would also make an amazing gift for someone special in your life.


In addition to being functional, these beauties are a work of original American art, by gifted Oregon-based glass blower Alexandra Farnham. Alexandra's work is simple and unassuming, intended to be used and enjoyed over time. Its hidden beauty should be discovered as you hold it; your hands should feel the texture that has been left by her tools. Each small flaw should be remembered; it should tell the story of how the glass was made.


Alexandra was raised in Stockton, New Jersey, not far from where Washington crossed the Delaware. She grew up surrounded by old things like antique ceramic jugs and early medicine bottles that had been buried, sometimes burnt and then unearthed, which shapes continue in her work.

This is a Live Event Item.
