Frank Power - Master Sculptor
Frank lives in Waterford City with his wife Rita and their three children. In his spare time, he enjoys sea angling. Frankie was sixteen years of age when he began his training as a wedge cutter. After completing his five-year apprenticeship and an additional three years of intensive training, he became a certified Master Cutter.
Frankie’s attention to detail and quality was a perfect match for the demands on a Master Cutter. The Prestige pieces that Frankie specialized in demanded great precision to ensure that the line and depth of each cut was perfect. Among his favorite crystal pieces were the older and more traditional designs. Frankie has always had a great interest in, and a flair for crystal sculpting. He is currently sculpting a range of limited edition pieces, exclusively for Cashs Crystal. Among his exquisite creations are crystal harps, pianos and other spectacular pieces.
