Born in 1979, in Atlanta, Georgia, Andrew Jackson Pollack has been an artist all his life. Raised by parents involved in the arts, he was introduced to the mediums of ceramics and glass at an early age; making and marketing his first beads, from polymer clay, at the age of 14. Though predominately self-taught in glass, he has received numerous scholarships to prestigious centers, such as, Penland, Red Deer College, and the Studio at the Corning Museum of Glass. There, Andrew has studied among some of the top artists of his field. In 2005, he recieved a scholarship to assist, artist, Brian Kerkvleit with two, two week workshops at Penland and Red Deer College. As a member of the faculty at the New Orleans School of Glassworks, Andrew is in charge of coordinating the Lampworking Department. He also distributes kilns for Olympic Kilns out of Atlanta. He has devoted himself to the exploration of his medium, teaching and making art full time for the past four years.

The MENORAH pictured is one of my best sellers and retails for $500. The dimensions are 7"x12"x3.5", but can vary silghtly, as each piece is one of a kind.
They come in clear, frosted, and cobalt, with limited custom colors available upon request.
The MEZZUZAHS are another best-seller and are $40 each retail. They come with a scroll, and hardware and directions to install. They come in over a dozen different color combinations. Ask what will match your exterior or what is popular this season, when ordering.
KIDDUSH CUPS are each one of a kind.
There is one sub-page gallery located on this page. This is where images of my older lines of Judaica are located, including my version of the Tree Of Life Menorah, another popular item in this catetgory.

These candlestick holders are an evloution of my line of candleabras created for my first wholesale experience this year at the Buyers Market of American Craft. All designs are available and can be customized to meet your specifications of color, size and price. These candlestick holders start at $150 retail.
Most of these candlestick holders are sold, but call to find out about availability or time needed to create on just for you. Usually, not too long. But things are getting busy and the holidays are right around the corner. Place your orders now.
The candelabra pictured is approximately 11"x7"x3" and has a dichroic latticino stem and colored lip wraps on the tops and foot. Sold - $225. Let me create one for you in a wide variety of colors. Click here or scroll down to see more.

These are my goblets that incorporate figures into the stem, as well as others. Atlas, ferries, angels, and just plain old strong men, these little guys will keep guard over your finest wines. Starting at $120 retail, each is one of a kind and can be made custom for you.
Enjoy....

All of these solid pieces are fairly large, ranging from 2" diameter to 12" diameter. All of the images are lampworked and then either cast or encased. All of the murinne is hand made by me, unless otherwise noted.
No sub-pages or other galleries contained within this page. Just click here and scroll down for a collection of images of solid weight-like work.
All of these are part of my personal collection. Some are for sale and in my personal collection, while most I can make similar or custom. 2001-2005. Each signed and dated.

Made Summer 2005. Two pieces on this page are still available, and they are two of Andrew's favorites. These are the Montage Sake Set and the Octopus Goblet that Andrew made last summer while assisting Brian Kerkvliet, at Penland School of Crafts. As a TA, Andrew gained invaluable experience from Brian and others. The other three pieces featured on this page were made using murinne, overlay, and graal techniques. Please enjoy.

Crabs, Crawfish, Lizards, Seahorses, Octopus, Shrimp Fish, etc... These animals are all one of a kind and can be used to decorate many environments. Either for your curio cabnet, or some of these animals can be hung from a bubble with a hook and float in your aquarium. No need to ever feed or flush them! Many custom creatures and detailed designs can be commissioned. Contact Andrew for further information.
No sub-pages or other galleries on this page. Click here and scroll down for a collection of my sculpted animals. I try to make a few animals each week, if I can fit it in my busy schedule. Call now to reserve your pick of a batch from my Crustacean series or sculpted Aquarium series. Last updated Spring 2006. Please enjoy.

all post-Katrina/Rita. I could not sit around. I had to keep me and my friends busy and employed. Thanks to Tiffany Kahrs for colaborating with me on many of these necklaces. We dug through all of my beads from demos from past Atlanta workshops and found enough to make the majority of these pieces.

The glass cabs were all done by myself, as well as the PMC jewelry. I can only take credit for a couple of the wire wrapping jobs, though. My mother is a natural jeweler and she did a couple. Tiffany Kahrs was the wire wrapping machine - figuring out new techniques by the second. Just wait and see what kind of collaborations happen next!

Old pendants, and new ones below that. Scroll down for samples of 2005 Aquarium series and other murinne, dicroic, spiral, etc... beads. Or see my other jewelry section, below, for more.

This page contains a series of Vessles made from January to August 2005, as well as, a gallery of work made prior to 2005. See lamps, sake sets, perfume bottles, goblets, candy dishes, and more. Scroll down to the bottom of this page for the most current images, or click on any of the texts below to enter one of the galleries. Mostly single "celebration" goblets and pairs, but can accomadate your needs. Starting at $40 each, you, too, can drink in style. And everyone agrees - it always tastes better out of hand made glass.

Menorahs, mezuzzahs, yads, and kiddush cups. These older designs can be done now as custom commissioned pieces. Time on custom orders can vary depending on season, so be sure to get orders in early for important dates.

These beads are made with my own fish murrine inserted inside a tube with twisties, fumed dots, etc... and then condensed down. They are assembled into necklaces, using semi-prescious stones - onyx, coral, pearls, czek crystal, etc.. All findings are either bali or sterling silver.

Rings, bracelets, and some of my first necklaces made from precious stones and silver. Most are custom made to order.
This image has a signed pendant with silver dollar freshwater pearls and czek crystal as an accent.
If you enjoy these, see New Work Gallery for current images of jewelry by Andrew Jackson Pollack Designs. Now using silver chain, freshwater pearls, turquoise, coral, and other materials, centered around either an aquarium or a dichroic galaxy pendant.

Everything here is pre 2004 glass pendants. Most are long gone. Always save your first beads! You'll wish you had later. They should be worth more to you than anyone else.

Each one of these is custom made and planned out with the couples. They start at 100$ for colored figures and $50 for clear or colored abstract sculped tops.

Pre 2004 vessles. Only three pics here, two of which are in Andrew's personal collection. Older, but still nice. More to be added soon.

An assortment of goblets and candydishes, all one of a kind. Some are meant to be more sculptural than functional. Actually, many of these are from my first explorations into the goblet as a form. Lampworking a glass goblet or "cup" allows many techniques to be employed in the creation. It is one of Andrew's favorite forms to make in glass, because it challenges many of the aspects of glass and forces the artist to push the limits of the medium. Compare this page with Andrew's New Work page and see his evolution.

No lathe, hand worked ~30", marble base. More images of lighting to come soon. Can do custom lamps. These lamps generally start around $250.

These flattened bottles make great cheese or serving trays, spoon rests for cooking, soap dishes, or anything else you can think of.
Get your favorite beverage bottle flattened today! Comes in three sizes and includes specialty bottles with the label still on.
These cheese trays are made with 100% recycled materials. They make great gifts and I can do 1 bottle to 100s, and will give price breaks on orders of more than a couple. Retail price range is $10-$30.
