Jon Kuhn (b. ) is an American born sculptor and designer whose primary medium is glass. In the early years of his studio career, his work shifted entirely away from blown and fired glass. Soon after, he began working exclusively in cold sculpture, creating sculptures made primarily of glass and stainless steal. Today, Jon Kuhn is recognized globally as one of the premier studio glass artists creating cold glass sculptures.
