Decorative glass bowls

We bought this pair of decorative glass bowls from a gallery about fifteen years ago. They are pieces that display well in natural and artificial light and every now and then I try to squeeze a photograph out of them.

Fused art glass

This small example of fused art glass is a piece that took our fancy when we saw it on display in a gallery. It is designed to be displayed against a window so that its colours glow in the daylight. Here I used a light box to illuminate it for a photograph.

Art glass bowl

Every now and then we buy a piece of art that takes our fancy. Today's photograph shows the interior of an art glass bowl by Paul Barcroft, one of a pair, that we bought in a now defunct gallery. The other bowl has a similar pattern in sea greens and blue. It wasn't immediately obvious where they were best placed to show off their beauty. However, our current house has a south facing window in the living room and the direct sun falling on the bowls make them positively glow.
