Welcome to AD Glass & Design!

Aaron Duccini is the owner, creator, and designer of AD Glass & Design. He began lampworking in 1998, and has developed his skills through patient repetition and a respect for glass. He has taken lampworking classes from Roger Parramore, Sue Ellen Fowler, George O'Grady, and David Willis.

In 2002 he took place in Sonja Blomdahl's class at the Pilchuck Glass School, which sparked his interest in furnace glass. He has since participated in classes from Fritz Dreisbach, Frantisek Janak, Rik Allen, and Shelly Muzylowski.
