Annieglass will be showing the art of talented jeweler Kathleen Plate. Join us for a chance to meet the artist and see her amazing work.

I am looking forward to hosting Kathleen Plate for the April First Friday and Saturday trunk show at my Santa Cruz store. Partly because I want to show off my art-loving town, and to share our mutual love of glass. I know that she is as hooked on the material as I am. For this event there will be champagne, and gift with purchase (while supplies last). We are so lucky to have her visit Santa Cruz. Kathleen recently received a patent for her technique of slicing bottles width-wise and kiln firing the rings to round the edges and give it texture. Then she makes the rings and other parts of the bottles into earrings, necklaces, bracelets…even chandeliers. “Drink it, wear it” is her brilliant tagline.

Meet Kathleen in person at the Annieglass Store Santa Cruz Friday April 6 from 5-8 and Saturday April 7 from noon to 5pm. She will be bringing her newest works on the first stop of her trunk show tour…don’t miss it!
