He is Jinggoy P. Salcedo, the second son of Rudolfo and Angelita Salcedo, heir to his mother’s blown glass legacy, Angeli Glass Product Specialties. He has had remarkable success combining his passion for metal sculpture and his mother’s unique handblown glass knick knacks. With his glass and metal works of art. Angeli pioneered in blown-glass figurines—flowers, trees, animals, and other figures mounted on thick glass bases. She began to color the figurines and they looked even more attractive. Growing up, her son Jinggoy hung out in her atelier, fascinated.
