Rick Ayotte, "Scarlet Bouquet" Size: 3.22" Price: SOLD

Rick Ayotte is one of the world's preeminent glass paperweight artists, and what you see here is possibly the only marble/sphere that Rick has made. It was purchased directly from Rick and we don't know of any others in existence (it's possible there are a few, but I've certainly never heard of or seen any).

This marble is a huge double-sided red rose bouquet, featuring many beautiful red glass roses and little baby white roses, four large red roses on each side, arrayed in wonderful splendor within crystal clear glass. This is some of the brightest, most beautiful red glass I have ever seen, incredibly vibrant, a gorgeous rose bouquet that will last through the centuries. This is almost certainly the only chance you'll ever have to own a Rick Ayotte sphere, and it is a beautiful DOOZY!!! I should mention though that some of the roses are a little flattened on the surface in the way they are constructed, a bit lower profile or whatever one would call it. I am not familiar with other work from Rick, so I don't know if this is typical or not.
