Two Crafts, One Commitment: Sustainability in the Simon & Andrew Collection

Two Crafts, One Commitment: Sustainability in the Simon & Andrew Collection

The Simon & Andrew Collection represents a shared commitment to responsible, American-made craftsmanship. Andrew Pearce's hardwood components are sourced from managed Northeastern forests, while Simon Pearce's glass is hand-blown in studios powered by solar and hydroelectricity.

Our collaboration prioritizes natural, non-toxic materials: food-safe hardwood finished with allergen-free oil, and lead-free glass built to last generations. No shortcuts, no synthetic fillers, and no unnecessary waste in either workshop.

When you choose a Simon & Andrew piece, you invest in a family legacy built on the belief that beautiful things should be made responsibly. Your purchase also supports forest renewal through our Tree for a Tree program.

Cheese Tray & Glass Care

How do I clean and maintain Andrew Pearce Wood?
Hand-wash with warm, soapy water and dry immediately with a soft cloth. Store your wood product on its edge or in a rack to allow for even airflow on both sides. When the wood begins to look dull or feel dry, apply a light coat of our Refined Walnut Wood Oil, let it penetrate for a few minutes, then buff away the excess and allow to dry for at least six hours before use.
Can I use soap to wash Andrew Pearce wood products?
Yes. A small amount of mild dish soap and warm water is perfectly safe. Wash gently, rinse quickly, and dry right away. Never leave it soaking in the sink or resting on a wet surface, as prolonged exposure to water can cause the wood to swell and crack over time.
Why can't Andrew Pearce wood products and Simon Pearce glass go in the dishwasher?
Both wood and handblown glass are natural materials that require gentle care. The extreme heat and high-pressure water of a dishwasher will strip the wood of its protective oils, causing the fibers to swell, warp, and eventually crack. That same heat can damage the delicate integrity of handblown glass. Hand-washing is the only way to protect both pieces and ensure they remain heirlooms for a lifetime.
What is the best oil for conditioning Andrew Pearce woodenware?
We recommend our Refined Walnut Wood Oil, a premium, non-toxic, food-safe finish made specifically for fine woodenware. Unlike standard vegetable oils, which can turn rancid, our oil is heat-treated to be shelf-stable. It penetrates deep into the hardwood fibers, leaving a beautiful, lasting luster that protects against moisture, odors, and stains.
Are Andrew and Simon Pearce related?
Andrew is Simon's eldest son. Simon's father Phillip was a ceramicist, so Andrew is part of three generations of craftsmen who share a passion for three different mediums: pottery, glass, and wood. Andrew is also a skilled welder.
Cheese Tray & Glass Care

Why can't the wood components of a Simon & Andrew set go in the dishwasher?

The extreme heat and high-pressure water of a dishwasher will strip the wood of its protective oils, causing the fibers to swell, warp, and eventually crack. Hand-washing is the only way to protect the wooden elements of your set and ensure they remain heirlooms for a lifetime.

Why is the family legacy important to this collection?

This collaboration represents two generations of artisans working in tandem to deliver sophistication and utility. When you purchase from this collection, you are acquiring a piece of American craft history backed by the reputation of two world-class makers, each a master of their medium.

Can I buy individual replacement pieces for my collection set?

While many individual glass and wood components are available in our respective brand catalogs, the sets in the Simon & Andrew Collection often feature a bespoke fit exclusive to this collaboration. This ensures a perfect, sophisticated harmony between the glass and the wood that cannot be replicated with off-the-shelf pairings.

Is the wood used in the collaboration boards food-safe?

Absolutely. The Walnut and Cherry hardwoods used in this collaboration are 100% food-safe and finished with our non-toxic, allergen-free Refined Walnut Wood Oil.

Are the glass pieces in this collection hand-blown?

Yes. Every glass element in the Simon & Andrew Collection is hand-blown by Simon Pearce artisans. Because they are created by hand, you may notice subtle artisan signatures, such as tiny bubbles or slight variations in weight. These are not imperfections. They are the hallmarks of authentic, mouth-blown glass, ensuring your piece is entirely unique.

What makes Simon & Andrew sets the best choice for wedding gifts?

These sets are foundational heirlooms that celebrate the merging of two artistic legacies. A Simon & Andrew set, such as a hardwood board paired with hand-blown dipping bowls, symbolizes a union of strength and brilliance. They are gift-ready showpieces designed to be used and treasured through generations of family gatherings.

How do I care for a set that includes both glass and wood?

We recommend caring for each material with its specific needs in mind. While the glass components are generally dishwasher safe, hand-washing is recommended to maintain their long-term clarity. The hardwood components must be hand-washed with warm, soapy water and dried immediately. To keep the wood vibrant, periodically apply our Refined Walnut Wood Oil.

Where are Simon and Andrew Pearce products made?

Every piece in this collection is handcrafted in the Northeast. Simon Pearce glass is hand-blown by master glassblowers in Quechee and Windsor, Vermont, while Andrew Pearce wood components are hand-turned by skilled artisans in Hartland, Vermont. This local collaboration ensures a standard of quality and American craftsmanship that is unrivaled in the luxury gift market.

What is the Simon & Andrew Collection?

The Simon & Andrew Collection is a premier artisan collaboration between father Simon Pearce, a master of hand-blown glass, and son Andrew Pearce, a master of hand-turned wood. Featuring exclusive gift sets that pair brilliant lead-free glass with sustainable hardwoods, it is the ultimate expression of American-made functional art, designed for those who appreciate the intersection of two distinct craft traditions.
