The studio built its reputation with museum-quality colonial reproductions, original Art Glass in the Nouveau and Deco traditions, crystal sculpture, contemporary designs, and exquisite cameo creations. Pieces from the studio are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Smithsonian Institution, Toledo Museum, Corning Museum, Wheaton Museum of American Glass, and many other major museums, as well as in prestigious private collections.
