"My name is Gregory Hoff...a little background on the glass piece; working on a propane and oxygen torch I start with clear borosilicate tube which gets colored, blown, cut with shears and then shaped into it's final form. This design evolved from a free form lily design I have been making which was featured on the Nov. 2005 cover of BeadStyle Magazine. I have been working with glass for ten years. The piece you have was made in Florida, but I currently reside with my family in Northern California. I do many different styles, and am always willing to do custom designs for clients." Gregory Hoff
