Rooted in the vibrant creative community of Philadelphia, Antolini Glass Co. is a dynamic glassblowing studio helmed by artists Gemma Hollister and Tate Newfield. Together, they bring a shared vision to life—one rooted in craftsmanship, experimentation, and an unwavering love of molten glass.
Working primarily with soda-lime glass, Gemma and Tate are known for their ability to transform simple materials into expressive, finely detailed pieces that range from playful to profound. Their work captures both the timeless elegance of traditional glassblowing techniques and the edge of contemporary design. Every object—whether functional or sculptural—is hand-blown with care, precision, and a touch of whimsy.
Gemma, recently featured as a standout artist on Netflix’s Blown Away Season 4, brings a bold creative energy to the studio, blending form, color, and concept in pieces that captivate collectors and casual admirers alike. Tate’s background in fine art and material science complements the duo’s practice, adding thoughtful engineering and innovation to the studio’s aesthetic.
From delicate fruit forms to striking vessels and one-of-a-kind home decor, Antolini Glass Co. is more than a studio—it’s a celebration of collaboration, imagination, and the magical potential of fire and sand.
