About Marcela
As a glass artist, I am deeply passionate about creating modern Judaica that brings beauty and significance to Jewish traditions. My work primarily focuses on crafting handmade mezuzahs, menorahs, Seder plates, and other unique Judaica pieces. I also specialize in Chuppah Glass Art, transforming wedding glass shards into treasured keepsakes that capture the joy and spirit of a wedding day.
My journey into glass art began over 21 years ago when I immigrated from Buenos Aires, Argentina, to Prince Edward Island, Canada, where I established my first studio surrounded by the beauty of the Atlantic Ocean. While there, I honed my skills in fused glass techniques and casting through studies in New York and Montreal. Over the years, my creative work has expanded beyond Judaica, with custom pieces for private collections, corporate awards, installations, and dignitary gifts.
After living in Prince Edward Island for a decade, I moved to Cobourg, Ontario, and eventually set up my current studio in Toronto six years ago. Throughout this journey, I’ve remained committed to blending tradition with artistry in everything I create, ensuring each piece is not only beautiful but meaningful.
Whether it’s a mezuzah with Chuppah glass shards delicately integrated into the design or a menorah lighting up your Hanukkah celebrations, I work closely with my clients to bring their visions to life, creating timeless pieces that celebrate Jewish milestones.
Each time a piece leaves my studio, I feel a little bit of my soul is going with it.
