After a couple of years of giving away a lot of un-annealed glass I bought a kiln (wrong kind), hit summer phish tour (97), and upon returning, rented a (real) studio and Profound Glass was born. Fast forward 17 years(!) and here we are bringing the very finest opals to the worlds best glass artists. What a journey!

Many thanks to Misha for the years! of dedicated service to our boro community.
