We’re Thrilled to Welcome Mountainview Artglass as a New & Featured Summer Market Artisan!

It’s time to talk Summer, Summer Market that is! We’re super excited to introduce Mountainview Artglass to our Firefly Handmade community!

Andrea Hoehn, founder of Mountainview Artglass, has realized her true passion in glass fusing and stained glass making after 25 years of extensive and varied craftwork.  She cut her first piece of glass in 2013 and since then is constantly experimenting with new shapes, color combinations and types of glass.

Mountainview Artglass creates one of a kind and custom glass items influenced by Andrea's German heritage as well as years of world traveling - mainly across Asian countries. Clean lines are combined with bold colors and playful elements. Products range from coasters to sushi plates and decorative bowls. No two will ever be the same.

You'll Love Boulder Holiday Market Featured Artisan, Lane Dukart Studio's Ispired Stoneware Bells, Chimes and More!

Experiencing this enchanting work is like entering a very special world! From within a solar-powered studio, nestled among tall pines and massive granite formations in a tranquil valley of the Colorado Rockies, artist Lane Dukart draws his inspiration from the natural beauty that surrounds him. 

Each unique and graceful set of bells and chimes, architectural tiles, planters and light sconces are amazing works of art. Each piece is individually cast and hand-carved with original designs, reflecting the environment and culture of the Southwest.

Lane applies only natural oxides to accentuate the clay’s inherent earthy tones and textures. The dur­able stoneware clay is then fired to over 2,000degrees (F), making it impervious to the elements of nature and able to withstand rain, snow and wind. Each finished composition, signed by the artist, is a one-of-a-kind creation, faithfully reflecting the rustic harmony of the artist’s surroundings.

Wonderful gifts for yourself and others!
