Mothers, Sisters, Family, Friends

Celebrate those dearest to you with these elegant 100% recycled glass globes, handmade in Canada by Stephen Kitras and featuring an interior glass trunk that branches out to support vibrant splashes of color. Each globe is made from shards of glass used for car, home, and office windows. The shards are melted down in a furnace before being blown into beautiful works of art that have come to symbolize family, friendship, and the bonds that bring you together.

Tree of Family: Like the roots of a tree, family gives us the support and love to keep growing no matter how far we branch out as individuals.

Tree of Friendship: Like leaves on a tree, our life is brightened by friends who help define us as the individuals we are. The Tree of Friendship reminds us to cherish each of our friends, the old and the new, as each one adds a unique leaf to our tree of life.

Tree of Sisters: Whether she's your sibling or your closest friend, she nurtures you, supports you, laughs, and grows with you.

Tree of Motherhood: A celebration of mothers and the important role they play supporting us through the journey of life.

Tree of Fatherhood: A celebration of fathers and the important role they play guiding us through the journey of life.

Tree of Brothers: Whether he's your sibling or your wingman, he supports you, laughs, and grows with you.

Sold individually. Not intended as a tree ornament.

Use your own sturdy wire, fishing wire, or ribbon to hang the globe from the display stand or elsewhere.

We visited Stephen Kitras's glassblowing studio in Fergus, Ontario, and made a glass globe of our very own. Visit our blog for the inside scoop.

“Why glass? Compared to other media I've worked in, such as iron and ceramic, glass is immediate and responds right away to any design decisions that I make.”

The mantra "when surrounded by beauty, the spirit is uplifted" embodies the mission of Kitras Art Glass. Stephen Kitras began work as a glassblower in 1988, and in 1994 he formed Kitras Art Glass with his wife, Elke. By 2001 the company had expanded to over 40 employees and a new facility.

Family Tree

This is a beautiful gift idea to celebrate someone special. I purchased the Family tree for a loved one for a housewarming gift as they were moving away. It is the perfect size to be a lovely accent in a room or to hang outside.

A perfect gift for family members

As I noted above. I am not living close to my family so this tree with its many branches was a good reminder that even though we are not close together we are still very close.

Disappointed.

Very disappointed in quality for the price I paid. The personalization is very difficult to see and to read. This was a 10 year Anniversary gift for my son and wife. Very disappointed

Perfect gift

I purchased the family tree globe as a Mother's Day present and it has received rave reviews. The globe is now hanging in a sunny kitchen window as a centerpiece and one that makes a beautiful statement. The globe is so unique and intriguing, with a myriad of colors that can work in pretty much any room. I love it and more importantly, so does the recipient!

This was absolutely stunning. Very beautiful. Larger than I thought, but clearly, I didn't read the description. It was hand crafted, recylcled glass. The recipient loved it and everyone is our office thought it was a perfect going away memory gift.
