Hello Vaporists ! I have the honor to present you the work from a French glass blower with a scientist background : Guillaume Thoraval. I fell in love with his marbles and naturally he had to be presented here !

After 13 years as a Scientist glass-blower for chemists and physicists, graduate from the University Paris 7, he then focused on the art-glass since 2 years. Now he is willing to make pieces designated for us, vaporists, dabbers and oil heads. Smokers are also concerned, but this is not the place :p . He is not a full-time yet but I think he have amazing skills to become a name in the game. He probably will be open for custom pieces as well and you will have to check in private for that part. He also create composite and mix glass with materials.
Scientific or heady pieces are part of his work.

I'll be the contact guy to make his promotion and show you the available pieces. His work is outstanding as you can see on his facebook page : https://www.facebook.com/guillaume.thoraval
You can contact him directly on his facebook page or by e-mail : gthoraval91@gmail.com

Here you can see a recycler he made back in 2013 inspired by the work of Mr Viktor Schauberger on Water structure energizing and recycling. Excuse the quality and the unclean glass.
Check the documentary on Mr Schauberger :

Some other example of his work down here !

Here is a pipe he made a while ago (not available) :

Don't be shy to share your impressions. I'm personally excited to see what Guillaume will come up with ! More pictures, videos and available pieces will come. Don't forget to follow up and watch the thread !
Here is a tease from the artist skills & Facebook page :

" Vermiculite floating in the glassy sky !
The second inclusion i made with adding some fairy white color i created with a blue background. "

Message to Mods : I'm not going to make any profit ! I'm only going to post here the available pieces for order. You can consider that I will make a kind of promotion for Guillaume Thoraval. If you think I should create "another account", just let me know. I think someone else here is already doing some kind of similar promotion since glass blower should be on the torch and don't have much time left behind the screen. Thanks !

Yes, he lives in Paris !
UK and Europeans Glass artists are starting to enter the scene ! It will be good to see what they can bring to the glass world ... Now Europeans have the pleasure to get blowers closer from them but I don't think it will be a problem for him to ship worldwide as he already have been doing with his marbles, pendants, pipes, ..

I'm going to order a mini-tube from him really soon ! I don't have any heady pieces, and I like clear glass to see the vapor ... but I want some GT touch on my tube ! Excited already to see what he will come up with...

I forgot to mention : Guillaume is working with quality Boro of course (Schott and others...) be he is also working with Quartz !
