The Story
Glass block has a long standing history in architectural design, first patented in 1866 by Gustave Falconnier. Glass bricks, or “briques de verre,” were blown into a mold with a hollow center and an opening at one end, which was then filled. The opening of this glass block has been left unfinished, so that it can serve as a vase. Both Post-modern and Art Deco at once.
