Celtic Spherical Bowl – hand made Irish glassware

Celtic Spherical Bowl  with copper paternation – contemporary glassware hand made in Ireland by Keith Sheppard Glass Artistry.

Handcrafted Irish glassware using High Quality ‘Bullseye’ architectural fused glass.

A sleek contemporary, ‘minimalist’ approach to tableware for modern living, complementing a large range of interior designs and budgets.

During the kiln process the infused copper reacts with the composite minerals of the base glass resulting in differing shades of blue with 'electric' highlights which presents a fantastic random paternation

Due to the unique colourations of the glass and firing process, no two pieces will ever be entirely identical.

Each Celtic Bowl is unique, handcrafted with bespoke craftsmanship and attention to detail which elevates its desirability.

Although a lovely piece of glass art in its own right it’s also a functional bowl.

Making the bowl -

• The glass is cut to shape and ‘full fused’ in the kiln.
• Following this initial process the glass is re-fired to infuse copper into the  the glass.
• The third and last kiln process slumps the glass into a mould.
• Final 'cold working' grinding and polishing.
• The inclusion of a ‘vein’ in the copper identifies the work with my artistic signature.
• The finished piece is also engraved with my name and year date of production.
