Our Mission
Our Mission at Iron Art Glass Designs is to provide a great product, value and service to our resellers. As a independent family operated company we know the pressure that lies in purchasing inventory for a store. That is why we carefully select the products we produce and allow our customers to make a small investment in comparison to the value they receive in their goods. As part of Our Mission, we are always willing to help our customers and encourage comments and suggestions. We view all sales with our customers as a long term partnership and hope that once the goods are received, that the reaction of being flabbergasted like we are when we receive them.
Our Story
Iron Art Glass Designs started in 1999 as Iron Elegance by David Simpson. Iron Elegance was exclusively a retail website and still continues to operate today. However, as demand for our products have grown we have realized that we can't be the only company the products our products directly to the consumer. Approximately, a year after www.ironelegance.com launched we started offering our products wholesale. As time has gone on we have refined our product line to better suite both our wholesale and retail customers.
Iron Elegance was initially started as a second source of income for David while on his travels to Europe for the Steel Industry. As interests changed in the market, David eventually focused all effort into Iron Elegance and eventually built what is currently operating today as Iron Art Glass Designs. Of course it wasn't that easy, but with the continued support by qualified resellers, Iron Art Glass Designs has seen successful growth since it's conception.
In 2006, David decided that it was best to differentiate the two divisions of Iron Elegance Retail and Iron Elegance Wholesale. This was decided so that our products could be promoted through the retailers without the conflict of interest between wholesaler and retailers. Iron Elegance has become an independent division of Iron Art Glass Designs and will promote Iron Art Glass products to the consumer.

Our Products When our company started, we first started with a small selection of home accent wrought iron pieces. We soon learned that while these designs were popular, they just weren't enough selection to choose from. As time went on we learned what products were better than others but also strived to provide the best possible selection for our customers. In 2000, we first produced a small assortment of Glass Balls known as Kugels. As time has gone on, we have learned how great this product is not only for our company but for our customers. Kugels are commonly referred to as Friendship Balls, but we like to refer to them as their traditional name in Europe. Kugel is translated as Ball in German, so it can mean a number of things. However, in our sense it means a basic glass ornament of color that is meant as a traditional house decoration. Kugels are our best selling product and are offered in over 200 designs in dozens of shapes and sizes. We are certain we have the best selection anywhere. As time has gone on, we have also developed Watering Balls, Witch Balls, Hummingbird Feeders, Gazing Balls and other various products based on the idea of a glass ball. On top of these products, we are also currently make several products that combine the glass ball with a piece of decorative iron. An example is our SunStick which takes a glass ball and hangs it in a garden stake. While we focus intensely on our glass ball products, we also love to create a large selection of decorative glass pieces and practical wrought iron items. Our fine glass pieces can be considered a great value with several designs coming from top glass blowers in the Carpathian Mountains. We also stock several glass pieces that are hand painted using organic paints. With over 2000 different items available with our company, you will have a large selection of products to choose from. If that isn't a good selection, we can also provide custom products for you company if you meet certain minimum order specifics. So whatever you need may be, Iron Art Glass Designs will work to fulfill it. |

Our Company Now that you know our history, let's talk a little about how we operate. Iron Art Glass Designs is like very few companies in the gift trade. The traditional gift industry takes orders at gift shows and takes weeks or even months to ship out your order. This is volume based wholesaling where the wholesaler lives or dies based on large orders and limited selection.
