"Patchwork Physics" Size: 1.03" Price: SOLD


I've only sold a couple of this style from Chris, because these hollow wonders are my absolute favorite style that Chris ever did!! There are several artists that have done hollow marbles over the years, but Chris was the one who got them the lightest, with nice thin walls, so much so that they shock people when they pick them up because they're so light! In order to construct them this way, he had to leave a small pin-sized hole in the marble to allow air to escape from the heat, so the marble wouldn't collapse in on itself. This one is a rare smaller version of his hollow, and he made very few in this size range. It is one sweet little gem, with patchwork dichro pieces laid all over it, suuuuper beautiful in hand. This is one of the most unique and historical pieces you'll be able to collect from the marble movement. Signed 'Pan 03'.
