Amber Tide Pool - Glass Vase

The Amber Tide Pool Vase by John Gibbons is inspired by the patterns and movements of the ocean. It is an original work of art. The anemone are optical and change with addition of light to create movement and undulation in the glass. Check out the video! It measures about 13.5 height and 7" in diameter. The pattern in this blown glass vase is achieved by cutting small glass rods and tiles, arranging them in a pattern, and then fusing them together in a 2100 degree kiln. A blow pipe is then rolled along the edge of the glass to form a cylinder. The bottom of the cylinder is closed, which creates a bubble, allowing the glass to then be blown and shaped into the vase. Gibbons uses the optical properties of glass to create a magnifying-glass effect in which the pattern undulates when viewed FREE SHIPPING! *This item is currently out of stock, please allow 2 weeks after purchasing to be recreated.
