Description
This grouping includes three gorgeous hand-blown glass ornaments or "Friendship Balls". The artist used a variety of glass colorations to create these beautiful pieces. One is in an opalescent white, one in clear rose and apricot, and the last in white and periwinkle for a watery appearance. Use these balls as ornamentation for your Christmas tree or as year-'round decoration for your home
Special Instructions
The art of hand-blown glass is done by inflating a gob of molten glass gathered on the end of a blowpipe. For these pieces the gaffer blew through the tube, slightly inflating the gob. The blowpipe was continuously turned, forming a round shape and creating a swirling effect.
