This amethyst toned glass bowl is part of the Bernard Katz Tree and Root series (artist signed). Hand blown and extensively cold worked, it is perfect for a dramatic display piece. The inside layer of glass is a transparent color that fades towards the bowl, with a dark outer rim of rich purple. The back has been sandblasted, leaving only the image of tree and branches in winter.

An American glassblower, artist, and sculptor, Bernard Katz has established a dynamic yet distinct style that can be seen in the top art galleries and private collections the world over.

Bernard has been the subject of interest in numerous books and magazines which have featured the artist, as shown in World Art Glass Quarterly Fall 2006.  He has exhibited in the top art shows in the United States including The Smithsonian Craft Show, Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show, Long’s Park Art & Craft Festival, and the Baltimore American Craft Council Show.

The bowl is 16 inches in diameter.
