WELCOME TO SELO/SHEVELGALLERY.COM!

We are so happy you have found us and invite you to take a look at the treasures we have assembled for you here. Our pledge is to provide you access to the finest hand-crafted American and imported folk art available, to make your shopping experience (whether in person or online) exciting and convenient, and to provide you with the very best in customer service.

For twenty-seven years we have represented some of the leading artists in hand blown glass, ceramics, wood and jewelry as well as wearable textiles and mixed media. The gallery is also unusual in that it combines handmade objects from around the world with American crafts. It is our belief that beautiful and interesting pieces can work well together regardless of where they were made.

This web site contains only a fraction of our extensive and ever changing collection. For that reason we hope that you have a chance to visit our gallery in person, where you have a chance to actually touch and feel these wonderful pieces. In the meantime, we hope you enjoy perusing our web site. We would love to talk with you and to help you find exactly what you are looking for so please do not hesitate to call or email us.

JOSH SIMPSON            
Meteorite glass has a will and mind of its own.  A Tektite is finished when the meteorite glass and I reach a compromise.  -Josh Simpson 
 
The following video shows Josh Simpson creating a blown meteorite sculpture Tektite in his home studio.
 
Josh began making Tektite glass years ago, when a friend did a spectrographic
analysis of a type of meteorite composed of glass, known scientifically as tektite
(from the Greek tektos, meaning "molten").  By combining the right proportions of
raw materials, Josh was able to re-create meteorite glass in the studio and started
to make Tektites.  One minute tektite glass is liquid, a moment later it's stone. 
Over the last 35 years, his art has evolved as he experimented and learned from
making countless mistakes.  He has found inspiration in NASA images of Earth
and other natural phenomena.
