2026 Studio Edition
Every year, Chihuly creates four Studio Editions, representing Chihuly’s most distinctive series. As every piece is handblown, your artwork may vary slightly in size, color, and shape. Small blemishes or imperfections in the glass are part of the glass blowing process and add to the individual characteristics of each piece.
In 1977, Dale Chihuly had a pivotal encounter with a museum collection of Native
American baskets. Struck by the way time and gravity had caused them to slump
and warp, he was inspired to, in his words, “capture this grace in glass.” His Baskets
embrace—rather than resist—gravity as a tool to create irregular, elegant forms
that echo this early inspiration.
In the 2026 Pewter Blue Basket Studio Edition, two Basket forms are positioned
off-center, their loose, intersecting body wraps heightening the composition’s visual
unsteadiness. Meanwhile, the work’s serene blue and enclosed, nested forms suggest
balance and steadiness
