About

From sunny San Diego California, James has spent the last ten years honing and exploring the facets of lampworking. Since his 2011 apprenticeship with Joshua Opdenaker, James has carved his own journey, striving for form and function in borosilicate glassware. He specializes in pipe making as well as various forms of wearable art. The glassblowing community in San Diego is strong, and he is proud to be a part of an exploding scene. Through collaborations and solo struggle, he has worked tirelessly to bring his vision to life. James's work can be found in various smoke shops across the continental U.S. as well as on his Instagram page. With the opening of this new store, for the first time, James has expanded his sales to reach patients and collectors alike. Through delicate processes and dance with gravity, each creation is brought to life. Each piece is individually crafted by hand with time, precision, and love. James's main goal is to create a piece that will fit in with your glass family because the bond between the patient and their pipe is unfuckwithable. Cheers!
