Covered Jar Shape Vessel with Bone-Tendril Finial in Strata Ruby

This exquisite glass jar by Danielle Blade and Stephen Gartner is a stunning testament to the beauty of natural forms, skillfully rendered through the artistry of blown glass. This piece captures the intricate layers and earthy textures of sedimentary rock. The lower portion flows with waves of rich earth tones, transitioning through shades of sage, slate blue, and warm sandy hues, all grounded by a deep black base that exudes strength and depth.

The jar is crowned with a bold, glossy crimson lid, creating a striking contrast that draws the eye upward to the sculptural finial. Delicately crafted, the finial features flowing amber accents around a tusk-like white element, adding an organic, almost whimsical touch to this elegant piece.

Available in two sizes: Small (14 inch) measures approximately 35cm tall including the lid by 18cm in diameter with the lid extending beyond the body for a total of 22cm wide and Large (17 inch) measures 46cm tall including the lid by 23cm in diameter with the lid extending beyond the body for a total of 27cm wide. 

Handcrafted in the U.S.A. and signed by the artists with the year of creation, each piece is a unique masterpiece of blown glass, ensuring no two pieces are alike. Measurements are approximate and will vary.
