About Calmbo

Calmbo Glass combines clean borosilicate construction with playful characters, balanced shapes, and thoughtful details.

The work includes collectible Birdlings, collaborative pieces, and other functional glass art with an approachable style and distinctive personality.

Calvin Mickle - known as CalM or Calmbo Glass - is a Denver and Evergreen, Colorado-based glass artist internationally celebrated in the heady glass community for his iconic, highly-sculpted bird creations. His signature "Burd" or "Burdling" series are fully functional, expertly engineered bubblers and pipes shaped like birds, featuring meticulous sculpted detailing - beaks, wings, and talons - often incorporating vibrant, iridescent colors and UV-reactive glass.

Over the years, Calmbo has built his legacy through high-profile collaborations with legendary figures in the flameworking scene, including Swank Glass, KGB Glass, Darby Holm, and Joe Peters. His pieces are highly sought after by functional glass collectors across the country.
