Jason Laret - Laret Glass

When Jason first saw the process of glass blowing he was intrigued and captivated in a way he never thought possible. Jason discovered the art of glass blowing over 24 years ago following in the footsteps of his great, great grandfather who created artistic glass works in Los Angeles in the 1940’s. Jason was initially introduced to soft glass or furnace glass at Palomar College in San Marcos, California.

During this college course he was introduced to borosilicate glass which is typically used to manufacture multi-colored artistic glass pieces, lab equipment, cookware, etc. He fell in love with soft glass and borosilicate glass and has continued to work with both ever since.

Many of Jason’s pieces are inspired by nature which keeps him captivated and grounded. His art can help bring this feeling of nature into any home or garden. Some people like art because of how it makes their space feel warm and inviting, some enjoy the visual dynamic that glass brings to any home, and others like the thoughts that are invoked by an art piece. He tries to capture all of these various ways of seeing the world so that everyone can find something in his artwork that speaks to them.
