A collaboration between Asprey and one of the world's most talented contemporary glass artists. Hand carved in minute detail and individually signed by the artist.
This lead-free glass bowl features the distinctive plant life and sea creatures of the English coastal waters and rockpools. The intricate decoration is achieved by using diamond point drills and contemporary carving techniques, creating a tactile cameo in fine detail and relief. Each vase is mouth blown then layered with several enamel colours on the inside, which is then carved through to give the cameo relief effect. Each vase is signed by the artist and engraved with the number within the year of production.
Product Care Handmade crystal, please handle with care. Avoid surface scratching or chipping and any contact with hard or sharp objects. Hand wash only with mild detergent using warm (not hot) water.

This masterpiece of the silversmith's craft was created in the Asprey workshops in the 1980s. Lifelike and exquisitely graceful, it was the pride of the Rosalind and Arthur Gilbert's villa in LA. It has been displayed at London's Victoria & Albert museum since October 2016.
