"Earth Vault" Size: 2.95" x 1.69" Price: SOLD


This is one of the nicest Carver B paperweights I have sold, and it is one of the larger sizes that Andrew has created. Soooo many layers of beautiful earthy glass went into this piece, and as always, Andrew carved perfectly through it all, expertly revealing the amazing beauty inside. So much work goes into a piece like this, it's hard to fathom. I'm sure that's a big reason that Andrew hardly ever creates these larger pieces any more. I haven't seen a new one in years. There is a combo dichro-gold fumed vortex inside the piece, winding down inside, with a sweet opal perched on top. Besides the colors of the piece, one of my favorite aspects is the awesome scalloping he did all over the outside of it. Again, SO much work, but so worth it, because it adds an amazing level of character and depth to the piece. This is a must if you enjoy the best of Carver B! Signed 'SAB 09'.
