Swirls of Gray Handblown Glass Sculpture I

A single gesture captured in molten form, this handblown glass sculpture by John Richard traces undulating ribbons of gray through transparent depth, each swirl a record of the glassblower's breath and hand. Standing fifteen and a quarter inches tall, the piece commands quiet authority — slender in profile yet generous in presence, its cool tonal movement reading differently as light shifts across the day. It is the kind of object that anchors a shelf or console without competing, contributing instead a considered layer of artisanal craft to an otherwise composed interior.
