Since the early 90's, my woodcarving shop has been right next to Pairpoint and down the road from the Sandwich Glass Museum. Years ago, I used to make blocks and paddles for them out of apple wood. Their creations still fascinate me to this day.
One of the most glorious glass pieces i have ever seen, like water splash moment, or blue flame, just utterly beautiful, brought tears to my eyes. Amazing teamwork, skills and artistry.
The teamwork is amazing. You have to really trust someone to create art together like this. I LOVE these artist demonstrations. I can't watch them to fall asleep because I end up wanting to see the final piece every time. Such a beautiful way to create art. I wish I could do this.
as a kid, back in the day, I am 63 now, used to go to ports o Call in San Pedro Cal. n I LOVED watching the glass blowers, they made mini items n animals, I was fasinated, and I still am today, thank you for sharing I LOVED this!
Omygosh! I'd forgotten all about that. Now I remember. Ports O' Call was a marketplace near the docks. I loved watching the glass blowers as a kid (this was in the '60s/'70s). I wanted to learn how to do that. My dad worked in a glass bottle factory and would sometimes make little glass animals from the defective bottles. I still have a few.. Thanks for the memories.
Dont know your name, speaker Lady, but your soooo good, i Think you could comment anything, never thought i would notis such a thing, but your the reason, im here, i know nothing about glas-art, but you made me watch 2 hours this night … 👑 thank you Lady
Absolutely beautiful. Breathtaking! I'd never have the patience for this, never!!! Wish there were more after shots, different angles and stuff. It really is a work of art.
Beautiful work!!! I absolutely love watching this. Even as a kid I wanted to be a glass blower but I have heat triggered asthma attacks. I did go into the fine arts and I love it but I sure wish I could have worked in glass too.
I love the format of this video. The narration and the camera's setup at various lacations. It was very enjoyable to watch. The narrator did a great job at constantly letting us know whats going on.
Hi. I'm George. Watching in Johannesburg, South Africa. I used to make stained glass lamps and love anything glass. These guys are unbelievably talented and obviously love their art.
Omg that's jaw dropping.could you imagine the beautiful pieces that he has in his home.just make me a little tropical fish.love all the glass and colors.
What an amazing, stunning piece of art! I thoroughly enjoyed watching all these artists perform a ballet while creating perfection. Congratulations Jim. E
*Chick on the internet says she's not impressed, host goes into explanation of this artist's credentials.* Lesson? "You can have your opinion. He's the success story, and therefore doesn't need your damn validation anyways. Toodles!" Beautiful!
I could watch a good glass blower all day long. If someone is bored by this, it is just that glass does not get their attention. I like to watch almost any kind of artist.
I am completely fascinated by this work! Especially how creative minds have to work together in this to execute everything. I do art and i just can't imagine working with so many people on one piece. :) Very nice video!
This was SO well presented! It would be enjoyable to watch regardless, however the host offers exactly the right amount of narration with the tidbits of info that makes it even more fabulous. Camera angles and switches and everything... Brilliant.
I can imagine a mighty Doge of Venice, seated at his banquet, with a servant setting this in front of him! In it would be gold-gilt sweetmeats from the Far East. At a mere gesture, the servant would set an array of goodies on a matching plate, using tiny, chased, solid gold tongs. Head bowed, the plate would be presented to the great ruler. "Oohs" and "aahs" could be heard through the sumptuous hall! Eyes would glisten in admiration and envy! The noble Doge would smile, and turning his head to an honored guest, indicate that this elegant treat should be passed thereto. Hands would clap in appreciation of the honor! THAT"S where Mongrain's art belongs! Bravissimo!
Maravilllosoooo, se merecen el máximo reconocimiento a la dedicación, la paciencia, la exquisitéz en el buen gusto x el Arte mismo🙏🏼🥂🥂🥂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!!! Felicitaciones desde Uruguay😍💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼!!! Excelente equipo!!!!!. Me gustaría ver más, y saber fdónde es el Museo....
Gorgeous, and such a crazy level of craftsmanship! I'd love to see the finished pieces in person, or even filmed in more rhan one type of lighting- they are absolutely beautiful, so very delicate and intricate looking.
Thanks TH-cam, I now have a new binge watching obsession. Thankfully it's a craft that doesn't...uhm fit within my budget...so my ADHD can't go "ooh let's learn that next" IYKYK 🤦♀️🤷♀️😂
A relative of mine visited the museum and called this morning to tell me how great it was... so being a millennial I immediately looked for them on TH-cam. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised to see what a big channel they have, with a ton of different artists featured and all you could want to see without visiting. I'm impressed guys, good job!
I just randomly stumbled upon this, it is fascinating! I've seen bits and pieces of glass working in real life and on TV but this is great start to finish. AND you guys have inspired me to take some private lessons in my home town Thanks!!!👍
The audacity of that online commentator who said this wasn't impressive skill... its got to be embarrassing for people in her life to be around someone so loud and yet so unqualified.
Hi Charlotte, it depends on the project! A simple tumbler with no decoration could take 10 minutes and a complex sculpture with multiple types of decoration could be built over several days. Practice definitely makes it take a little less time as the gaffer and their team figure out the most efficient way to build a piece. Thanks for watching!
@@corningmuseumofglassThanks for filming :) My professor speaks highly of your Museum. I"m not sure if she did a residency there or not, but she encourages us to see what's going on over there :) as we are sculpture majors :)

This piece of glass art is so stunningly beautiful that it takes my breath away. Congratulations to Jim Mongrain for creating it.
Every morning I wake up to one of these videos. I don't know how... I just do.

One of the most glorious glass pieces i have ever seen, like water splash moment, or blue flame, just utterly beautiful, brought tears to my eyes. Amazing teamwork, skills and artistry.
Thanks for watching our demos!
so glad to know im not the only one who cried watching these lol
Wait.... Is this Olympic-Figure-Skating style narration to glass blowing!?!
Ahhhhhh!!! I'm so excited I can't even!! 😁🤸♀️❣️🤸♀️‼️
Apparently this is the stuff that TH-cam finds me when I leave auto play on at night, thanks TH-cam! This video is absolutely amazing
Thanks for watching!
Me too😂 And I’m so happy I’m watching this. This is a skill I’ve always admired.
@@taramiesler2401 Thanks for watching!

@@DesertSkiesAV you are so very welcome!
does anyone else use these demonstrations to fall sleep to!!?? Its so soothing even with the commentary!
Yes, when I sometimes want something on that is unobtrusive, these demonstrations are perfect.
I do too. Soooo calming and interesting
Right now!😁
I do daily. Gives a good night sleep
Meeeee 😊😊

That was amazing work, well done, definitely an excellent example of craftsmanship and great team work..
Thanks for watching, Amber!
People who have this scale of skill with glass blow my brain out. Thanks for sharing this!!
Thanks for watching, David!

What a laser-guided “eff you” from the universe. (As an allergic cat lover, I can relate.) It’s great that you enjoy what you can do.
@@alicepiper7455 right??? Lol... I've loved cats all my life and just in the last couple of years found out I'm allergic to them too.

She’s the best!
He is able to paint stories into the glass itself. Incredible work.
This one episode was my favorite!! Absolutely beautiful work! Bravo!

Interesting to know how much work goes into a piece like this and how many people are involved. It's truly exquisite and a craft to be recognized.
These people do some really beautiful work.

I just did
Yeah, I keep passing out to NileRed (a chem channel) and it _always_ brings me to these long-ass glass vids.
just did
wtffff i literally just woke up to this after taking a nap on my lunch break lmfao
Again? Wtf?

Thanks for watching, Ed!
I agree i always want to see the finished work but i never get to.
You are an absolutely delightful commentator. Your pentamiter and tone are so pleasant and captivating I can't stop watching.

It reminds me of Victorian filigree jewelry. Thanks for all the great videos!
Thanks for watching!
I guess you tube senses my boredom and brings me back to videos I hit a like on years ago. This was what I wish I could have done for a living.
Hands down the most beautiful work I've seen on this channel. Kudos!
Wow!!! Absolutely beautiful!😍😍😍👌
Thank you! 😊
This is astounding! Your narration was instructive and enjoyable along with the artistry and flow of motion between craftsmen. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very interesting presentation, amazing intricate difficulty of skill in glass works. So artistically executed.
Thanks for watching!
So beautiful. Reminds me of an oil lamp my grandmother has - not the top (detail wise) but the overall shape.
Thanks TH-cam, I now have a new binge watching obsession. Thankfully it's a craft that doesn't...uhm fit within my budget...so my ADHD can't go "ooh let's learn that next" IYKYK 🤦♀️🤷♀️😂
This is fascinating, I cant fathom why 25% of people rating the video left thumbs down???
They’re morons and would rather watch comics.
@@MCV-xg7kc I agree. Young folks these days....
Gauw!! Congrats!!!!! this is FENOMENAL!!!! Thanks!!!!
i am now addicted to the youtube corning museum site.. i could camp out there and never go home :)
It's definitely worth going in person. The museum has some stunning glass objects. It's miraculous what can be done with glass.

A fabulous work of art and precision! Bravo!
After seeing a Chihuly show a few years back I'm fascinated by this process.
Me too I Love Chihuly it would be great to go to glass blowing class
Thanks for watching!
Gotta wonder how many pieces have died on the way in or out of the furnace.. (collisions with fixed objects)

Wow, glass making is a more intense sport than wnba. Absolute brain power, beautiful art.
Another beautiful piece.............
What beautiful work! He is very talented.
Amazing art work.
Amazing skills, great team! Congrats!!
This is so amazing!
This is an awesome vid. The piece they are tweaking toward the end is gorgeous.
Thanks for watching!
Stunning. Absolutely Beautiful!
love those pieces you guys design
I've been fascinated by glass blowers ever since I was young. Saw them at the county fair or something. I had a collection of glass animals.
Thanks for watching!
Omg I just woke up and checked my phone and found that I put my auto play on and this is what I found 😂
Awesome work! Ontario Canada
Beautiful facilities. ❣️
Hi this is Eva. I'm from Sheboygan Wisconsin. I enjoy watching things being made of glass
Amazing !!! just no words besides Respect and wow.
Thanks for watching!
Incredible work and must be shockingly expensive.
How does he know how much glass is needed (when added) before cutting ? Such craftsmanship, beautiful piece and harmony between artists
The short answer? Years of experience and practice!
I slept and I woke up watching this
I choose glass casting , because it is more like a sculpture object than a glass blowen object.
The audacity of that online commentator who said this wasn't impressive skill... its got to be embarrassing for people in her life to be around someone so loud and yet so unqualified.
Unworldly talent.
I don't know if question are still being answered but if so I'm curious how long these projects often take
Hi Charlotte, it depends on the project! A simple tumbler with no decoration could take 10 minutes and a complex sculpture with multiple types of decoration could be built over several days. Practice definitely makes it take a little less time as the gaffer and their team figure out the most efficient way to build a piece. Thanks for watching!
How you put the camera into the kiln? It's so great point.
Im pretty sure they have a camera behind a peice of heat-resistant glass
I love your vids, but I wish that your AV team would adjust the audio settings when you upload them to youtube.
Sometimes the volume is just right and at times it's so low I can't even watch the video
Beautiful job. Great team work.
I love the sports like commentary running :) this is great!
