About us
A Legacy of Artisan Design in the Pursuit of Handcrafted Excellence. In the age of bigger, better, faster, we believe simplicity, quality, and artisanship are tenets of a better way of life. Made from the finest materials using old-world techniques, Simon Pearce glass has the durability for a lifetime of daily use. From our hand-thrown pottery to our lead-free crystal glassware made with custom molds and purpose-built furnaces, each handcrafted piece carries a story that lends meaning, authenticity, and grace to every use. Since the beginning, Simon’s life has centered around functional, sophisticated design. Growing up in Ireland with a family of artisans, attention to detail and aesthetics were part of his everyday experience. At age 16, Simon began his craft as an apprentice at his father’s pottery studio. From there, he went on to work with notable glassmakers all over Europe before opening his namesake studio. Inspired by centuries-old Georgian glassmaking techniques and using the finest natural materials, Simon set out to create designs that bring pleasure and inspiration with every use, every day. After apprenticing in the great glass houses of Europe and first starting his business in Kilkenny, Ireland, Simon Pearce moved to America in 1981 to pursue his dream of creating handcrafted glass using traditional techniques and the finest raw materials. From the beginning, his glass was designed for a lifetime of daily use. Exceptionally brilliant, the glass is classified as lead free crystal and uses a proprietary raw material formula. All glass is made in America by glassblowers who are trained through the Simon Pearce apprentice program.
