Which house can do without glasswork? Each of us has a glass souvenir at home which reminds us of an unforgettable trip or remarkable festive occasion, there is a candlestick with glass elements which warms up the room every time you switch it on, and there is a vase without which any beautiful bouquet of flowers will be incomplete. All those fragile things are pleasant to the eye and bring to our homes comfort, beauty and positive emotions. A glasswork can be hand-made or machine-made. Yet only hand-made article can be unique as it is impossible to make two articles absolutely the same by hand. All manufacture on the "ARTglass" plant is performed by hand blowing method (with the help of blowpipe). When several identical glass objects are needed, blowing is done with the use of wooden or metal moulds.
"ARTglass" plant was founded in 2009. The idea to set up a plant making artistic glass belongs to Ukrainian old-timers of glass work- Victor T.Chernetskyy and Vyachyslav V.Dudin. Victor T.Chernetskyy as a director of Kyiv Art glass plant namely and Vyachyslav V.Dudin as a Honoured Artist of Ukraine, allied member of artists of Ukraine, as art-director of the plant, developed Ukrainian school of artistic glass in 80-90s of the last century which was the advanced one in the former Soviet Union. This school was mainly formed on Kyiv plant of artistic glass.
Having large work experience with a team of professional glassblowers and artists and also a great wish to develop Ukrainian artistic glass, distinctive and unique phenomenon of national culture, Chernetskyy V.T. and Dudin V.V. managed to find a possibility to breathe new life in production of artistic glass without losing the potential of Ukrainian masters and artists. Nowadays Italian glass-melting furnace and Ukrainian annealing kiln are installed and started on "ATRglass" plant as well as a glass manufacturing workshop.
