Ayako is a very talented Japanese artist who lives in Nagoya City, Japan, and is making BEAUTIFUL marbles using Japanese satake glass, a very soft glass that quickly turns to a gooey honey-like consistency with much lower heat than other glass. The detail that Ayako and her Japanese counterparts can achieve with this soft glass is nothing short of remarkable!
Soooo beautiful..this has got to be one of the prettiest galleries I've ever seen! I love seeing those close-ups. NICE job Brian! ps. You don't really need that sweet pink one in your collection, do you?..I think it needs to travel to AZ, haha.
