"East Meets West" Size: 2.32" Price: SOLD


Ha ha, good lord, Dan threw everything but the torch into this marble, just about every boro glass tech you can imagine, WOW!!! This one features BOTH of his latest murrine scenes, one on each side of the marble. The Hiroshima Castle scene is multi-layered with incredible fuming all around, and flower millie sprinkled in there generously. The the other side features Dan's Ghost City, a really nice slice with the ghosts peaking out, and an incredible SNOWFLAKE opal sitting above the city. Seriously, an opal in the shape of a snowflake? Yeeeeep!! But to make it even more amazing, there is a full layer of UV behind Ghost City, with various designs contained within that UV layer. And then of course Ghost City itself has UV worked into it. This is a definite 'I have ZERO clue which side to display' marble, ha ha. An awesome creation, this is the best marble I have ever seen Dan make!! This one is signed 'DB *', only the asterisk is a star, signifying a special self-collaboration marble for Dan.
