"String of Opulence" Size: 1.81" Price: SOLD

This monument to beauty is signed #96 from Jared's now completed and sold out series of 100 Watergarden marbles. The connectional flow around and through this marble is simply mesmerizing in its stunning beauty, and it is the essence of 'watergarden'. As this series progressed, the marbles just kept getting better and better, and these late model versions are hard to believe, they are SO exquisite!! Some of the later water flowers also incorporated opals, and two of the three main white flowers in this one have opals in the stamen. This marble demands both light and exploration, and the more light you employ, the more beautiful it gets and the more fun it is to explore. Not that this marble is dark in any way at all, it's just that the way Jared designed it, especially with the carved water flow, makes the light play simply magnificent. All glass loves light, but this marble truly craves it. A hard marble to get go of indeed!
