Here is one of the most amazing pieces of worked glass that I have ever laid eyes on! This piece is completely hollow inside, and ALL of that incredible cold work design is worked on the shell that started out as a hollow sphere. The delicate touch needed to pull something like this off is incredible, and Nathan is now at the point where he is really starting to boggle the mind with what he is doing with the glass. It's so fun to shine a light inside this one and see that yes, there's really nothing in there and this design is cut all the way through, ha. The silvery blue color used on the surface of this piece is PERFECT, contrasting so nicely with the black that is below it. Again, you HAVE to get this one in hand to truly appreciate it. You'll be astonished that you're actually holding glass, oh so light and ethereal, yet powerful in the energy of creativity that it radiates. Those patterns, WOW, I can't stop staring at this jewel. You'll want to hold it like Gollum, your Preciousssss, so fragile and special, and you'll want to protect it like nobody's business! Guaranteed to please and amaze!!
