Bowls

Small Bowl Collection

These are all thick (3/8 to over 1/2 inch) high-temperature fired abstracts formed into small bowls. These are fun to produce and usually very interesting and colorful. I usually have a few around at any given time.

Blue and French vanilla with clear, strip cut with tile interior. The brown speckles are the high temperture reaction between the colors. This 10" square bowl is thick and heavy, with clear iridescent edging.

This large (14" dia.) shallow bowl has gloss black with red stringers in the center with a mat black surrounding.

This heavy 10" round plate is one of my favorates, demonstrating the black/white/black three layer construction, with reactive glass, silver, copper bearing roundels along the edge and copper powder accent.

Square, 10", transparent green along with strip-cut wood-appearing, green patterned glass.

One of my wife's favorates, cranberry checkerboard tiles with white accents, this 12.5" round bowl is a stand out.

Thick and heavy, this 10" x 10" clear/red/blue strip-cut bowl appears to have varying width stripes different depending on the viewing angle.

High-firing is a technique where glass is stacked to trap air when fired to 1800 degrees, resulting in the glass 'boiling" which results in interesting effects. The color and arrangement of the different colors is critical to achieve the interesting swirling patterns.

Octagonal silver foil and red rim, 10" dia. The center is a delicate and subtle effect of clear-on-clear bubble mosiac pattern.

Iridescent Green (11") on French vanilla streaky base, with irid base and edging.

Mixed strip-cut and blue streaky with white highlights(11").

Bowl, 11.5" diameter, this thick, high-fire disk has extensive cold-working to produce a flat rim.

Teal with reactive white and copper highlights, 11" square.
