A Fragile Peace:  The Magic of American Cameo Glass From The Touma Collection

October 1, 2016  - January 8, 2017 - This exhibition is a series of works from among the last of the remaining blanks that consist of five layers of glass or more. Decorated with scenes derived from nature, mythology, human figure studies and even local landmarks and townscapes, the works are stunning displays of the designers’ work as well as a tribute to the local craftsmen whose skill in blowing the vessels made it all possible. These objects join a smaller display of Pilgrim cameo pieces in the HMA Glass Gallery to showcase the remarkably exuberant glass creations that sprang from this West Virginia-based venture.
