Trent Mall

“A trade, not a brand.”

Trent Mall owns the Laughing Dragon and works glass the old way — heat, breath, a long conversation with something that will not be rushed. He sat down with Jared and Chris and did not treat the making as a brand. He treated it as a trade.

Last month he held this chair. The full piece is still his. If someone asks who blew glass at the Guild, this is the page to send.
