In a time before Nolita, it was a neighborhood of hidden gems, from kooky artist ateliers and boutiques to family owned markets and Mafia social clubs. Michael Anchin's unique style of glass-blowing took shape there and flourished. Now you can own his one-of-a-kind vases, each made with love, care, and 2000 degree molten glass in a matte or gloss finish. Michael's colors are manmade forces of nature made from real earth minerals.
