This vase is part of a series where I was exploring traditional shapes with playful elements. I created this vase with a transparent dark purple color frit, making for a distinct pattern of color "islands" with increasing color intensity towards the top. Tiny bubbles are captured within the color, adding extra depth.
The shape is a classic, slightly elongated sphere, sitting on a clear glass foot with bubble inclusions. Around the vase is an asymmetrical purple color wrap, with a series of articulated segments. This piece was made with two gathers of clear glass, rolled through dark transparent frit.

I adore every one of my pieces, and want you to be just as happy with it. Please contact me through Etsy if you have any questions and/or would like to see additional photos or a video of me showing it to you. I will get back to you promptly.
