Chicago native Felicia Ferrone (b. 1972) studied architecture at Miami University in Ohio before moving to Milan, where she worked as an architect for six years. “This experience taught me how to blur boundaries and make deeper connections,” Ferrone says. “It is there that I began to realize how the different disciplines of architecture and design overlap, how the roles of commerce and design history are intertwined and how the artistic process and the final outcome must be in balance. Milan taught me how to see and be inspired.”
Currently working on a private commission, new glassware collections and the research and design for an “ideal home,” Ferrone launched a serveware collection to mark the 10th anniversary of her brand in 2020.
“I think there is beauty in the utility of an object, just as there is something remarkable about a piece that is stunning first and practical second — it’s not an either or,” she tells 1stDibs. “I try to give my designs both qualities without insisting that one overshadows the other. I also create pieces that live in the present. While we see a lot of design referencing past eras or riffing on a particular vintage detail, I try to keep my focus on the form as an expression of today and the future.”

Set of Four Victorian Hand-Blown Clear Crystal Thorn Vases, Czech, 1890s
By John Walsh Walsh
Located in Glasgow, GB
This set of four Victorian clear crystal thorn vases, produced in Czechoslovakia circa 1890, demonstrates a highly expressive approach to late 19th-century decorative glass. Each vase is hand-blown, with a tall cylindrical body rising from an irregular, organically splayed base, and finished with applied clear glass thorns that spiral around the surface. The thorn decoration is individually applied and manipulated while the glass remained hot, resulting in a dynamic, twisting rhythm across each piece. Variations in form, thickness, and placement are evident throughout the set, underscoring the hand-crafted nature of their production and giving each vase a distinct presence. The clear crystal is of fine quality, offering strong clarity that captures and refracts light across the layered surfaces. The sculptural treatment of the exterior creates a lively interplay between transparency and texture. These vases relate stylistically to Victorian thorn glass...
