OUR GLASSBLOWERS
Gwyn Gillespie
If you follow Gwyn’s work, you may know her as Gwynovear or YoungStarGlass. We know her as long-time Sweet Tooth Glassworks resident glassblower, amazing Eugene artist, and all around awesome human!
Raised in a house of punk, how could she not be destined for a life in the arts? She’s specifically been melting glass since 2015. She is also one of a handful of glassblowers that provides STG with its handsome selection of locally-made dab rigs.
We love her work so much, we just had to drop her famous glass eyes on our homepage, front and center. Come in and see what we’ve got available from this local glass artist. If you’re lucky, you might be able to get your hands on one of her rare and intricate handblown glass dragons!
Three Fun Facts about Gwyn…
- Gwyn’s mom is a punk singer
