The Return of Craftsmanship and Glass Restoration

How Art Glass Repair Helps Promote Preservation

Throughout our history, our appreciation for true craftsmanship has undergone a rollercoaster of change. Unfortunately, in the last century we became a nation that valued convenience, the affordability of mass manufacturing, cheap labor, disposability, and the ever-important bottom line. As a result, we have generations who do not value the things like well-made clothes, handcrafted furniture, and especially the value of original artwork. However, the good news is that with the rise of e-commerce, auction sites, and groups that hope to revitalize the value of makers and artisans, we are slowly seeing a growing awareness for the quality of craftsmanship and preservation. These visionaries know the value of recycling, repurposing, supporting craftsmen, and restoring quality works from years past.

At Bokrosh Studio, master glass artist Michael Bokrosh is supporting this trend by offering expert glass art restoration to clients across the nation. Through his efforts, pieces thought lost due to damage or breakage are finding new life and returning to their owners revitalized.

Of all artistic mediums, glass is one of the most delicate, which is why when pieces are damaged, people assume the work is lost forever. However, art glass restoration is possible, and Bokrosh’s extensive portfolio demonstrates a passion for treasuring the visions and techniques of the original artists. Having trained around the world, he knows the level of expertise and skills that go into original artwork and can apply this training to even the most challenging glass art repair. His own original glass sculptures showcase the dynamic beauty that glass can create; and, as such, he is passionate about preserving other artisans’ works as well.
