"Cherry Blossom Ocean" Size: 1.41" Price: SOLD


This is Aki's most beautiful and endearing marble and bead (and now pendant) style, the one he is most famous for - the cherry blossoms! Aki seldom works with the wonderful satake glass any more, but when he does, he makes a few more of these incredible glass creations. They embody everything that is so wonderful about Japan, and they transport you there for a moment as you envision the blossoms lightly clinging to the branches in the spring, ready to float to the earth and cover the ground with their glory. The colors Aki used for this latest batch are just SPECTACULAR, and I must fight the urge to hoard them all for myself, situated together in one beautiful bowl of glass eye candy. Indeed, they look good enough to eat, and every collection MUST have an Aki cherry blossom marble in it! These are one of my top 10 favorite marble styles of all time. Signed 'Aki'.
