History
This space was once home to owner Simon Pearce. Now the Quechee Vermont location serves as the flagship store and features an active Glass blowing workshop where guests can view artisan pieces coming to life in real time. Simon Pearce grew up in Ireland in a family of artisans. He began working as his fathers apprentice in his fathers pottery studio at age 16. He soon fell in love with the art of glass blowing after having the opportunity to work with notable glassmakers all over Europe, before eventually opening his own studio. Finding inspiration from centuries-old Georgian glassmaking techniques, he gravitated toward refined designs that showcased sophisticated functionality with the use of the finest materials. Simon created a luxury brand of glassware that brought delight to everyday use. His workmanship and pristine techniques are still practiced today and can be viewed by any visitors that make their way downstairs into the workshop.
