Backwoods Glass – Crafted by Panda

Andrew “Panda” Lucariello is the creative force behind Backwoods Glass, blending skill, tradition, and passion since the early 2000s. What began with a simple, playful spoon pipe has grown into a career dedicated to keeping classic glassblowing alive.


Panda believes glass art isn’t just for display—it’s meant to be used, appreciated, and passed along. His work combines timeless techniques like wrap-and-rake with his own unique flair, resulting in strong, functional glass that’s both affordable and full of character.


Each piece from Backwoods Glass tells a story. Over the years, Panda’s pipes and creations have traveled with people through milestones, been gifted among friends, and even survived fire and time. Every design reflects his commitment to crafting glass that carries both utility and meaning.
