'It is always based on what I see, what is touching me.’
For more than fifty years, Klaus Moje devoted his life to the art of glass. He called it the â€most seductive’ medium, and in his hands it had the power to delight and amaze collectors around the world. His lifetime’s work changed the practice and appreciation of contemporary glass.
