"Inside the Sun" Size 2.54" Price: SOLD


This is a marble of staggering epicness. The kind that you long for when you dream about that ultimate marble for your collection. The one that makes other collectors drool all over themselves when they visit your collection and see it. This masterpiece from Travis was from a time when Travis was pushing the absolute limits of his glass back in 2008, and it's hard to say whether we'll ever see more of these. They are so hard to make, and Travis lost SO many of them while in the process of creating the few gems that survived. This marble is HUGE and DEEP and STUNNING and will leave you breathless when you see it in hand. This multi-burst gravity well has four bursts around the sides of the vortex, and then one that terminates waaaaay down deep inside of the marble. As your mind is trying to contemplate all of that, then you turn it over and you're hit with that astoundingly beautiful backside!! It's one of my favorites ever, and that yellow glass, so scrumptious. The yellow is actually layered below the rest of the design, as you can see by the shadows on it from the above raked and pinwheeled design. This is a magnum opus from Travis' career, and I'll probably be arrested by the glass art police for letting go of it. It is signed 'Weber 2008'.
