Ross Richmond began working with glass at the Cleveland Institute of Art in 1991, graduating with a BFA in glass and a minor in metals. He has studied and taught at the Penland School of Crafts and Pilchuck Glass School. Richmond began working as an apprentice to William Morris in 1997, eventually becoming a member of his team. His pieces are typically narrative, working mainly with figurative elements and symbolic objects. Richmond’s work shows at a number of galleries across the country and he teaches in the US and Canada. He has worked with William Morris, Jane Rosen, Preston Singletary, and Dale Chihuly.

Davide Salvadore is a Muranese maestro descended from generations of glassworkers. He has collaborated with venerated glasshouses such as Venini, Barovier&Toso, Nason&Moretti, and La Murrina. For Salvadore, working with glass is a way of life and a reverence for glass and its traditions are inherent in everything he does. He combines traditional Italian techniques and elements in innovative ways in his work, which reflects influences such as African tribal imagery, Muranese roads, and the smokestacks of glasshouses. His tireless quest for perfection and drive to push the boundaries of his material have led him to new ways of thinking about glass and its capabilities.
