Tutti Frutti Goblet (green top; peach base)

Robert Dane relates his study of Afro-Cuban percussion and his love for jazz improvisation to the ​“dance” he does with assistants in his glass-making studio. ​“We all have to respond to each other’s movements, timing, and actions to create the finished piece.” Tutti Frutti, which is Italian for ​“all fruits,” is an appropriate title for this series of goblets, which incorporate a rainbow of vibrant colors, from strawberry reds to blueberry and grape. These functional goblets are slightly heavier than their thin-walled and highly delicate Venetian counterparts.
