Blown glass sculpture strewn with the petals of a velvet rose in our globe styling.

A combination of opaque and transparent crimson frit are fused into the walls of this design and blown into petals.

This gather of color is cased in clear glass for light refraction and depth.

The bowl was created to accommodate requests for an artistic design with practical uses as a gift for someone who appreciates the rose.

The ancient Greeks and Romans identified the rose with their goddesses of love Aphrodite and Venus.

In Rome a wild rose would be placed on the door of a room where confidential matters were discussed. The phrase Sub Rosa or “under the rose” is still used to describe something as secretive.
