Meet the Business Owner

David and Barbara K.

Business Owner

David’s background was teaching high school and junior high school industrial arts and working with the Boy Scouts. Barbara’s was in sales and administration. They started off making custom stained glass in their studio way back in day. This soon led to branching out into fusing and other glass techniques, teaching, then selling glass and supplies for it all.

Their love of art glass in all of its many forms led them to open their gallery in 1990 along with former partner, Michael Riffkind. They represent about 350 artists in the gallery at any given time and have been voted the Best Art Glass Gallery in the nation by Niche Magazine. And, of course, they collect art glass themselves as well.

Some might say that their love of glass has gotten out of hand!

Carrollton, TX
This is a very interesting place with beautiful and interesting pieces of art. I sometimes forgot they were all glass. Staff was very polite and helpful, knowing it was my first time they explained the layout and pieces. He also let us know we could touch the glass with little white gloves that they would provide. I didn’t take advantage of that on this day. Definitely need delicate hands if you’re going to hold these items. They had several chests that displayed jewelry from several different artists and most were reasonably priced.
There’s a studio upstairs where you can take classes for painting on glass, making jewelry, stained glass, making plates.
Tip: There is currently major construction in this corner of the shopping center but they are open and a great place browse around and appreciate some of the nicer things.

I’ve been shopping Kittrell Riffkind for mamy years. I’ve always for interesting and wonderfully creative art glass here. Selection and price is outstanding. The folks that own and work there are always patient and informative.
Conveniently located at Beltline and Dallas North Tollway, there are a lot of great restaurants you can dine at during your visit. So, make and afternoon of it! Grab some grub at Gloria’s stroll over to Kittrell’s, grab yourself a little white glove and browse away! Just don’t decide to do your Michael Jackson moonwalk impression, you just might break something.

Was in the area and remembered I had seen this place Unilocaled… and I love art glass! As Deno says… oooooo shiny pretty things!
They have an eclectic selection arranged by artist, some better than others, but plenty to catch your eye and make you wish you had some money to blow. The owners were friendly for the most part, and you can handle most of the pieces as long as you use gloves… cutesy little white gloves in baskets around the place… made me feel like a southern lady of a certain era.
I ended up buying a glass ring of all things — pretty, different, and very fun! It is a marble size piece of glass in blue with swirls in it set in a silver swirl ring. Wearing it makes me smile :)

Oh the joy of shiny pretty things… Even when I’m not buying, I’m still shopping because it is such a beautiful experience to just walk through their store. It’s like going to a Chihuly exhibit at DMA, except you can touch things. They have a wide variety of vases, art pieces, goblets, jewelry, windows, flowers, orbs, paperweights, platters… you will seriously go into sensory overload! And if you want to touch things, they will give you a set of white gloves at the front desk and let you touch away.
The prices are really affordable. They feature work from about 300 artists, some of which are fairly notable. If you get on their mailing list they will send you a little card letting you know when they have a new show. The goblet show is amazing. Usually there’s wine and cheese on opening night. And I am all about drinking some wine and touching expensive breakables. For some unknown reason they are all about letting me. You break you buy?
Also there’s case after case of jewelry. I love the beads. I’m not a rich gal, but even I’ve purchased some jewelry and an urn or two there.
AND…if that’s not enough, they have a full service studio for those who aspire to make glass art. Classes for beginners to experts are available.
Go check out their website and see the eye candy and the schedules for classes and event. If you need someone to go with, let me know. We can eat Gloria’s afterwards!
