Tiffany Noel Thiele

 

Based in her studio on Bainbridge Island, Washington, Tiffany makes one-of-a-kind functional fused glass platters, bowls, votive candles, and jewelry.   Many hours go into each piece designing, firing and polishing the glass.  Tiffany likes to incorporate subtle pattern and texture through the use of inclusions of bubbles, strands of glass and raised textural features.  As an artist who has lived by the water for her entire life,  glass mesmerizes her by its similar ability to reflect and refract light.
