Lundberg Studios James Lundberg (9/15/48-2/28/92), having been trained in ceramics, studied glassblowing at California State University in the late 1960s. David Salazar and several other artists joined him in this new endeavour, becoming the first California studio to make glass in the art nouveau style. Steven Scott Lundberg, (12/29/53-4/12/08) fresh out of high school, soon joined his older brother as an apprentice in this new glassworks, known at the time as Nouveau Glass. In August 1973 they moved the glassworks to the small coastal town of Davenport, officially becoming Lundberg Studios. Steve left Lundberg Studios in January, 1997 to open his own studio, Contemporary Art Glass. A number of recognized glass artists including, David Salazar, Jim Shaw and Chris Buzzini, have worked at Lundberg Studios at some time during its history. Lundbergs first paperweights were made in 1972. They originally made surface decorated designs, then about 1980 they pioneered the torchwork technique for clear glass weights.
