Etched Crystal Glasses and Decanters

The Artist: Lorraine (Lori) Coyle

Surrounded by the majestic Rocky Mountains in her Colorado home, Lori finds inspiration in the natural beauty and wildlife of the area.

As with many artists, sometimes design ideas just seem to reveal themselves to her, whether a sudden view of an aspen tree in full golden colors, or in the leap of a deer as it crosses her path.

Lorraine started her artistic career with pen and ink drawings, and as a young adult
expanded her artistic talents to carving, and her interest in crystal art emerged.

Soon she was etching designs into large glass sheets, to be used in doorways, windows, and as room dividers in buildings and homes across the U.S.

Lori’s artistic talent grew as did her reputation and her business acumen. She began creating her art for such companies as Neiman-Marcus and Robinsons.
