What Makes It Uncommon

A Perfect Pair

Does adorable jewelry set her heart aflutter? Make it beat a tad faster with a pair of dainty glass studs. Gillian Preston’s heart earrings shimmer and shine thanks to her unique process. First, she layers candy colors onto molten glass, which she handblows onto a flat plated surface. After the glass sets, Gillian cuts it into darling hearts before polishing and fashioning them into their final forms. The result is a vivid accessory bright enough for date night but not too precious for jeans. Handmade in Pennsylvania.

Due to the handmade nature of this item, each is unique and will vary.

"Glass blowing" only begins to cover the extent of Gillian Preston's work. Raised in Midland, Texas, Gillian went on to study drawing and earn a BFA in glass at the Cleveland Institute of Art. Now creating fine art and a line of glass wearables out of her Pittsburgh studio, she incorporates myriad modern technologies into her jewelry making process. "My business began using hand-blown glass exclusively, but has evolved to include any and all techniques to aid in the production of our jewelry," she explains. Using everything from waterjet cutting to 3-D printing, her experimentation pushes the boundaries of what glass art can be.
