From the deep backwoods of Southern Oregon, lampworking artist Dayton Dean has been creating truly unique pieces of wearable art and exploring the boundaries of modern flame-working.
Dayton started in the industry many years ago working for a high end jewelry manufacturer in his hometown and glassblowing mecca; Ashland, Oregon. Years later, his business was formed and he began producing quality jewelry and selling to customers and retail shops around the globe.
More recently, his company has branched out and begun selling functional art pieces, sculpture and custom wears for just about any type of art lover. His passion lies in recreating the colors and patterns of nature and producing exquisite designs that have created a whole new demographic of of glass lovers.
Dayton strives to make every piece desirable and practical, straying away from the typical idea of glass jewelry, which has been seen in the form of "chunky" or "hippie" and instead taking it to a new level of quality that is only achieved by spending thousands of hours in the studio and pushing himself to the next level of mastery.
