Yellow and white art glass bowl with murrine and strip cut elements.
- 15" diameter, 3" tall
- Food safe, hand wash.
A pattern of lines and dots runs through the center of cross-sections of hand-pulled glass cane, with cheerful marigold yellow and a vanilla centerpiece.
The glass cylinders in this bowl are sections individually cut from hand-pulled glass cane, which I create by heating glass to 1500 degrees and pulling it into rods while molten in a modern-day adaptation of the 16th century techniques of the Murano glassmakers. The gradient of murrine as it moves around the bowl reveals a chronology of the glass cane as it emerged from the crucible.
Fused, cold worked, and slumped.
