Peter Ivy
Handblown glass from Toyama, Japan.
Peter Ivy is an American glassmaker working in rural Toyama, where he built his workshop by hand in a centuries-old Japanese warehouse. Trained at the Rhode Island School of Design, he moved to Japan in 2002 and developed a minimalist approach to functional glass that earned wide recognition as the beginning of a new movement in Japanese glasswork. His jars, bottles, goblets, plates, vases, and pendant lights are blown one at a time, each shaped by the breath and motion that formed it.
First presented at kataoka New York in 2019, Peter Ivy's work has been part of our houses of artistry for six years. The remaining works from this chapter are available below.
