Feders (also known as Vidrio Artístico de Cuernavaca) is a celebrated Mexican mid-century workshop founded by the German-origin Derflingher family, famous for pioneering striking "caged" or "imprisoned" brutalist glass art. Established as a family workshop under the leadership of artisan designer Felipe (Pipe) Derflingher and his sister Luz (Tota) Derflingher. Initially active in Mexico City during the 1960s, the primary workshop transitioned and settled as Vidrio Artístico de Cuernavaca SA in Cuernavaca (about 70 km south of Mexico City). Since 2002, Felipe Derflingher's son, also named Felipe, has run the family enterprise, continuing the production of select classic heritage designs.
