If you are interested in art, geometry or Italy, you'll love this winner of an exhibit by The Met currently on! We happen to love all three (only cool people like math) and the quality of design will delight your eyes!
Who knew glass could come in so many shapes, colors and patterns...
We first published on this exhibit here:

300 works are contained in this exhibit, and if glass does not immediately come to the forefront of your mind as an art medium, all that will change after you see just what Carlos Scarpa can do. Italians are known for their brilliant craftmanship. (just look at our shoe column...)
We once thought glass was always transparent; we were wrong!
What is done with stripes even a tiger would be envious of.
Don't miss this tribute to creativity only at The Met!
