"Green Steamer Bowl" Size: 7" x 2.50" Price: SOLD


This is one of Mark's amazingly beautiful steamer bowls. I think they get their name from the perfectly laid out lines of air traps that radiate out from the center, but I'm not positive. They are thick, substantial pieces of perfect crystal transparent glass, and the light interacts beautifully with them. They are made to display marbles in, but you could display anything in them of course, or just let their beauty rest by themselves. Ideally, you can create your own little artistic groupings of marbles that complement the color of the bowl, something I had fun doing myself when I visited Mark's studio back in 2004. This transparent green is to die for!! I have one like it or else I'd never let it go, ha. Signed 'Matthews'.
