Raos work reflects the South Pacific elements shaping his immediate environment: the seascape surrounding Devonport and the garden enveloping his studio. He melts his own glass from the highest quality materials and hand forms the work on a steel blowpipe. Decorative elements are all made from special coloured glass and are pre-formed before inclusion into each piece. He uses a variety of techniques including the traditional millefiori technique to express the depth and glow of a garden in full flower. Every piece is individually made, signed and dated by the artist.

His transformation of South Pacific elements into beautiful art glass objects and subsequent development of a new genre of glass artistry have brought him immense professional fulfilment as well as international acclaim. He has successfully completed two limited edition series of paperweights for Louis Vuitton and his work is in significant public and corporate collections including the Corning Museum of Glass in New York. Private collectors in Oceania, the USA, Japan and Europe seek after his work. Peter Raos art glass is available at the Peter Raos Glass Gallery.
