Essential Lampworking
In 2002 the new Freeman Studios workshop was born. Located right outside of Eugene, the studio sits on a beautiful five acres surrounded by trees and inspiring scenery. Here is where the Freeman Studios team creates their work. Their goal is to make only the highest quality products ranging from glasswork and educational videos to safety gear and beyond. The resident artists include Freeman Corbin, Wesley Chumley, Justin McBurnett, and Randy Smith, as well several apprentices and fellow lampworkers. They currently are working on a line of interior design products ranging from lighting fixtures to bathroom sinks and accessories. Freeman Studios provides private classes at their personal studio in Eugene, Oregon; they also teach group classes locally (through the Eugene Glass School) and abroad (in Tokyo, Japan). The Freeman Studios team is constantly striving to raise the standards and expectations of what the glass medium has to offer while also broadening their skills through the use of new working techniques and multi-faceted methods.
