Molten Glass Bowl On Wood Base

Cool, clear glass with a soft aqua tint settles into warm Balinese gamal wood. The two meet gently, like water finding the curve of a river stone. This is functional art—quietly sculptural, easy to live with, and made to be touched. Handblown glass forms an organic, rounded body with a smooth, angled rim. Look closely and youll see waviness and tiny air bubbles—traces of breath and heat that catch the light. The walls feel substantial. Where glass meets wood, the vessel follows every rise and hollow of the root, resting in a natural cradle. Carved and finished by hand, the gamal wood base keeps its irregular contours and lively grain. In Bali, artisans often work with what the land offers, shaping by hand so material and form stay in conversation. Here, the glass is softened in the furnace, then laid over the root and allowed to relax; as it cools, it remembers the woods shape and holds it. Place it where light moves—on a shelf, bedside table, or a windowsill. Give it a few stems in water, a small air plant, or a handful of river stones. It stands beautifully on its own, too, inviting a pause each time you pass. Recycled glass: Soft aqua tone with subtle bubbles adds gentle, living character. Gamal wood base: Naturally contoured, each grain pattern and edge is unique. One-of-a-kind fit: Molten glass shaped to the root, nesting securely in place. Approximate dimensions: glass vessel height 13 cm; opening around 6 cm across; overall height on the wood stand about 22 cm. As each piece is handmade, variations in shape, tint, and grain are part of its story.
