Inspired by the geometric forms of Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie Style designs and the elegant Art Deco lighting of Walter Von Nessen, this handcrafted table lamp by Phillip Daniel Meyer celebrates the enduring beauty of early 20th-century American design. Designed in 2018, the lamp is crafted from premium quarter-sawn white oak with a rich fumed dark oak finish that highlights the natural character of the wood grain.

Bold architectural lines and refined proportions give the piece a quiet sophistication, while a softly illuminated 6-inch white globe provides warm, energy-efficient light. Though rooted in historic design traditions, the lamp is not a reproduction, but an original work that reflects Meyer’s unique artistic vision and dedication to craftsmanship.

This ceramic whiskey set by Leslie Green Guilbault brings together sculptural beauty and everyday ritual. Finished in a luminous pewter glaze with subtle green and gray undertones, each piece has a softly weathered, metallic surface that shifts with the light.

The set includes a decanter, four whiskey cups, and a coordinating serving bowl designed to hold the entire ensemble—creating a cohesive presentation that is as functional as it is visually striking. Handcrafted with Guilbault’s signature attention to texture and form, the pieces feel both grounded and refined.

Ideal for entertaining or display, this whiskey set transforms a simple pour into a thoughtful, artful experience.

Great news just got even better! 🎉

We’re extending “Carl Powell: 50 Years of Glass & Photography” at Grovewood Gallery so you can experience it through our biannual Grovewood Village Studio Tour on May 2 & 3!

That means you can step inside Carl’s working studio and walk next door to see his full exhibition—a rare chance to experience the artist and his work side by side.

This retrospective celebrates the incredible career of Asheville artist Carl Powell, bringing together his evocative photography and innovative glass sculptures in one stunning showcase. His photographs capture a lifetime of observation, travel, and curiosity, while his glass pieces—known for their signature beveling techniques—transform light into mesmerizing, multi-dimensional forms.

✨ A longtime Grovewood Village artist (since 1999) and National Endowment for the Arts Fellowship recipient, Powell’s work invites you to slow down, look closer, and discover something new with every angle.

Make a day of it—tour the artist studios from noon to 5pm, explore the exhibition, and celebrate local artistry with us!
