Decorating

Bowls, crystal or glass, are beautiful things to decorate with. I notice a lot of glass being used for decoration lately. It can be functional and beautiful. When the bowl or vase is empty it can still be stunning when the light catches the glass or even better when it has a design or some special meaning engraved on it. I do quite a few bowls for wedding and special anniversary gifts or just decorative pieces to dress up a room. A bowl can be a wonderful commemorative piece as well. These bowls shown, have a west coast flavor to them. They were both commissioned wedding gifts. They are intaglio engraved, which means they are quite deeply carved into the thick glass and have a very 3 dimensional look to them. They become functional art pieces.
