Krystyna
Glass Ltd. is a small glass blowing studio
located on the beautiful shores of the
Sunshine Coast in British Columbia, Canada.
It was opened in 1987 by Jan Benda and his
wife, Krystyna. At this time Jan was already
a master in his profession. Jan graduated in
1969 from the Technical Glass Blowing
Institute in the Czech Republic with a
Journeyman Diploma. For the next fifteen
years, he worked to improve his skill with
the best glass masters in the Czech
Republic.
In his own
studio, Jan, who is assisted by Krystyna,
combines his technical skills with his
artistic creativity to develop and perfect
his own style: glass that is simple, elegant
and contemporary. Each piece is his original
design, and is created free hand, without a
mold. All pieces are signed by Jan Benda and
carefully inspected to ensure high quality
workmanship. |
