[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Seattle, WA – On Saturday, April 12, 2008, GLASSWORKS opened its doors to the staff of MASINS, the Pacific Northwest’s premier furniture and interior design resource. An intimate gathering of like-minded artisans, the GLASSWORKS staff conducted personal tours of the GLASSWORKS’ facility and demonstrated the depth and range of the kilns and processes. “Nothing shows the beauty of the glass we create better than standing in front of a heated kiln,” explains GLASSWORKS founder and master craftsman, STEVE SHAHBAGHLIAN. “This was an opportunity for some of the finest design minds in our area to see, first-hand, the depth and variety of the GLASSWORKS’ Collection.”
Part of the GLASSWORKS tradition of working directly with architects and interior designers to develop unique, one-of-a-kind glass masterpieces, the MASINS tour represents the personal style and interaction that is essential to the GLASSWORKS process. “The artistic imagination of the people we work with is one of the most essential aspects of what we do,” continues SHAHBAGHLIAN. “It was thrilling for all of us at GLASSWORKS to have an opportunity to share ideas with the MASINS’ staff and show them how their ideas could be realized in glass.”[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Founded in 1927 by EMAN MASIN, since then, four generations of MASINS have been defining the design integrity of the Pacific Northwest.
