Pelechov Studio is known for producing the biggest glass objects in the world. Expertise and open doors to crazy projects have allow us to experiment and continue developing the unique technique of glass kiln casting.
Our Studio is equipped with 12 kilns, all kinds of cutting and polishing machines, large mold areas, and most of all, it counts with a highly specialized team of people whom craft beautiful glass pieces every day. Since we work with artists, architects and designers from all over the world, we know that each project demands especial attention and so for us to craft some ones idea is a enormous responsibility taken with respect and joy.
In these lecture we will present you some of our most interesting technically cases, how are they made, which are the issues and problems we deal with, how we evaluate possibilities and which are our final products. You will learn about the process for melting a glass sculpture an will have the opportunity to talk with some one who knows almost everything about glass and who is open to teach and learn.
