Brooklyn-based glass sculptor Colin Keane Lynch founded KEANE in 2017, under a mission of spreading the beauty of handmade glasswork in a wearable form. Colin studied traditional g lass techniques in Venice before continuing his studies at the Corning Museum of Glass, and then finally at RISD. A labor of love, KEANE’s wearable treasures are made of borosilicate glass on a bench torch using a technique called lampworking. Glass rods and tubes are manipulated into the jewelry forms, then additional detail is added with what Colin describes as a “flame activated brush.” All handcrafted, no two pieces are alike. Show more
