This book presents more than four decades of work by Simon Pearce, tracing his journey from rural Ireland to Vermont and his commitment to revitalizing traditional craft for contemporary life.

Through photography and essays, I explore Pearce’s approach to glass, pottery, and tableware as forms shaped by use, light, and human connection. The book also acknowledges the artisans and workshops that sustain this lineage of making.
