| Lotton Art Glass In 1973, Charles G. Lotton made a decision that was to impact not only his immediate future, but would also serve to shape the futures of his children. With a fascination with art glass and a passion to pursue creative expression, Lotton surrendered a successful business career in cosmetology. As Charles labored to achieve technical excellence as well as artistic beauty, his creative achievements took form under the watchful gaze of his three young sons. Following the examples of their father, David, Daniel have each chosen to master the art of glass making and all have become highly respected artists. |

Today, from all four Lotton furnaces in eastern Illinois, working against the combined challenges of heat, gravity and time, exquisite creations take shape through gentle coaxing and forceful manipulation of molten glass. In addition to the private collections of many serious collectors of art glass, the artistry of Charles Lotton can be found gracing the shelves of the Smithsonian Institute, the Corning Museum of Glass, the High Museum and the Art Institute of Chicago. It has been said that just as the names Tiffany and Steuben ushered in the art glass movement of the twentieth century, Lotton Art Glass will surely lead the way into the twenty-first. |
