New Mexico Glass is a variegated crystalline blue glass full of swirling currents and pinpricks of light. The vibrant patterns are reminiscent of a starry night or even a map of the stars, or the might also resemble Hubble Telescope photos of great nebulae, topographic maps of dramatic alien terrain, and/or a stormy ocean full of turbulent waters and crashing waves. New Mexico glass is made by melting metallic silver onto the molten surface of a dark glass, then carefully controlling the temperature and flow of oxygen and propane into the glass furnace as the piece is formed, thereby enhancing and enriching the color.

Planets are solid glass worlds that might exist in distant galaxies and universes. They contain continents teeming with life, mountains and forests, winding rivers, sandy beaches, and swirling oceans, while clouds or spaceships drift in the atmosphere above. Planets range in size from as small as 1.75” diameter to Megaplanets that may be larger than 12” and weigh more than 100 lbs.
