So the wife and I are poking along in our preparations for our craft glassblowing business and it is time to acquire fixtures for our booth/tent. They need to hold a variety of sizes of glassware, Be stylish, lightweight, sturdy, damage resistant, and break down or nest for compact transportation and storage. so far we are thinking about "the arrangement" by Armstrong products (link below). They also have "pedestal and desk" that fulfill every requirement above except they are butt ugly. We are not finding much else out there that piques our interest. Any Ideas folks?
Be careful about using...
Be careful about using something made for home use and not commercial use. There are plenty of display units that knock down easily but that doesn't mean they are made to be knocked down and set up again repeatedly.
I like the one you linked to. You don't want anything very obtrusive in addition to it being practical. The glass should be the total focus, not what it's sitting on.
Lighting is really crucial with glass. It just dies under bad lighting and most show venues have awful lighting. So keep that in mind when you're looking for units---how to add your own lighting so that it won't show but will do its job.
Good luck! and p.s. - do you know glass artist Tom McGlauchlin? He's my uncle.
