I visited Argentina in September 2005 and was absolutely amazed by some of the glasswork that my aunt and her husband were doing. The earrings shown on this page for example were created using Vitro Fusion, a method of melting glass together at temperatures reaching 812 degrees Celsius (or 1,493.6 degrees Fahrenheit for those of us in the states!) When I saw these pieces, I immediately thought "These would do great on e-Bay!" So, that is exactly what I did. I brought these back and put them on e-Bay. Needless to say, there were plenty of others here in the states that found these as attractive as I do and they sold very quickly. Due to the positive feedback we received, I am planning another trip back to Argentina in 2006 in order to bring back some more. If you have any special requests, please email me, I would be happy to take them.

My aunt and her husband, who reside in Tucuman, Argentina, a fairly big small town in the Northwestern part of Argentina, started using this technique a few years ago as a hobby and have recently turned it into full time work. Just in time too as they just had their first baby! Each piece is individually made. There is no machine work in the glass at all. All pieces are one-of-a-kind. If you'd like to learn more, you can visit their web site (please note, it is in spanish), or you can email me and I will keep you informed of any news. I will be putting together a web site for them in english and soon as I return with more pieces.
