Description:

The American Shot Glass is a printed book curated by Eli Mazet that documents the modern shot glass movement in the glass community. It is constructed as a bound, full-color photography and reference book featuring selected work from over eighty glass artists, making it useful as both inspiration and a visual study resource for hot shop and flame workers interested in contemporary cup and vessel forms at small scale. This book is most valuable when you want to study proportion, foot treatments, lip finishes, and surface approaches that translate directly into shot glass making, whether you are working at the torch or at the furnace. Author: Eli Mazet. ISBN-13: 978-1536858037. ISBN-10: 153685803X.

How it is used:

• Use as a visual reference for shot glass form development, including bowl profile, foot style, and rim finish.
• Compare different artists’ approaches to color, pattern, and surface decoration for small vessels.
• Pull ideas for class projects, competitions, and production runs where consistent proportions matter.
