About The Furnace: a glassworks

Corey Silverman formally trained as a glass artist at Alfred University in upstate NY. Upon graduating in 1998, he worked at several glass studios around the country before settling in Denver, CO. He has experimented with slumped forms, casting, cold work, and solid sculpting but seems to always come back to the blown form. When he’s not making lovely glass objects to send to our retail partners nationwide, Corey enjoys experimenting in the hotshop, creating unique one-of-a-kind works of art, and inspiring others to explore their creativity through hands-on glassblowing classes. Together with his partner in life and business Leanne Silverman, Corey co-owns The Furnace, a public access glassblowing studio and gallery located in the heart of the Denver Metro area. Their studio is known for decorative, sculptural, and functional hot glass art which is represented by over 100 galleries and private collections across the country.Read their story
