Gateson Recko and Josh Sable: "Empyrean Duet" Size: 1.93" Price: SOLD

These Recko/Sable collaborations represent the absolute pinnacle in American flameworking, bringing together two of the best marble artists that the world has to offer - the Two Great Ones. These happened when Josh took a rare trip to Albuquerque, NM to visit Gateson, and they spent a week on the torch together creating some of the most amazing marbles the world has ever seen. A unique combination of their two styles, these marbles showcase what each artist has accomplished over their illustrious careers, bringing together Gateson's reflections on space with Josh's mastery of the retticello, wigwags and millie snaps. It's quite possible this will be the only time this happens, and these marbles are now rare as rare can be, and highly sought after by the best of collections. Masterful collaborations by two well-established masters, who, when all is said and done, will be looked on as two of the greatest artists of the new contemporary marble movement. These marbles represent your chance to own a special piece of marble history, as exciting and inspired as these things come.

This was the largest of the collaboration marbles they did, an excellent size for an Empyrean Sphere, allowing for plenty of 'space canvas' to work with. It features both a beautiful Sable retticello, and one of the nicest large Empyrean planets I've ever seen from Gateson. The 'deep space' glass featured between the two sides is REALLY nice and has several different Sable millie chips embedded in space. Empyrean Spheres don't get more exciting than this one!
