White Lacy Bowl

Translucent white glass is a soft neutral color. I added a dash of gray and khaki to coax visual texture from my neutral palette. This simple elegant bowl would be gorgeous in any setting.

I started with many small pieces of translucent white that I fused together into a lacy glass. For the second firing I added a layer of clear glass embellished with thin glass threads (stringers) and crushed glass (frit). After transforming the lace into a solid glass slab, I add edges to form a circle and fired it again. The final fourth firing created the bowl shape.

The bottom of the bowl is completely round.  It does not have a flat bottom. (Without a stand the bowl wobbles on a flat surface.) To look its best I recommend using a bowl stand or plate stand like the ones you see in some of the gallery photos.

This purchase is for the glass bowl only, not the display stands. 

This bowl weighs over 4 pounds.  It is 1/4" thick. Although it is 100% glass, it is not delicate. Treated with care it can last a lifetime.

Fused glass is never a perfect rectangle or perfect circle. By its very nature, measurements are approximate. This bowl is approximately 14-1/4" across.  It is approximately 2-3/4" deep.
