Glass Vases
The site was just launched in time for Mothers Day and will be tethered to their larger site for order fulfillment and credit processing.
With more industrialization of countries around the world, the art of hand blowing glass and turning glass to make beautiful and soulful glass vases is being lost to glass injected molding machines. http://www.Glass-

About Design & Story
We created Design & Story to be a source for unique gift ideas, a connection between creative designs and the inspiring stories behind them. Our goal is a simple one… to explore the world for unique products from artists, designers and companies with spirit and to "tell their story".
If you need a glass vase, would you prefer to have one with shapes and colors inspired by waves hitting rock formations at the ocean’s edge? Do you want to give or wear a piece of handcrafted jewelry and be acquainted with the artist’s inspiration behind the piece? Is that just a fun paperweight, or was the mold hand sculpted and stamped by a woman who followed her heart and started her own company after a downsizing? We each have a story, don’t we? We think the story is the part of life that connects us to each other. Experiences, memories, dreams, and adversity all attribute to the stories we remember, share with others, and hold in our hearts.
Have you ever heard a saying or quote that "stuck" with you? One you just couldn’t get out of your head? We stumbled across this quote a few years ago and really connected with it. We didn’t know at the time but the quote would become an integral part (it’s on the front page of http://www.DesignandStory.com). It stuck alright!
"Tell me a fact…and I will remember it.
Tell me a truth…and I will believe it.
Tell me the story, and it will live in my heart forever." ~ Anonymous
This quote was also the launching point for our product descriptions. Every product has a fact, a truth and a story. We want to be sure you have the story on hand so we decided to print each product’s fact, truth and story on a petite scroll and include it with every item we sell.
