Shir Glassworks combines the inspirations of Madeline and Ori Shir to create uniquely whimsical and intricate glass art. From fantastical to functional, Shir Glassworks celebrates the beauty of connections within the natural world.

Madeline's focus is torch work, shaping molten glass with a flame to form small figurines and sculptural detail elements. Ori’s specialty is furnace work, using blown glass and surface patterning to create vessels and large sculptural elements. They incorporate coldwork, kilnwork and multimedia for installation and lighting projects.
