About this Item
Cape Town, South Africa
David Reade clear glass scent bottle blown with brown and white swirl with stopper, engraved 'Reade 2012'
2012
15cm high, 13cm wide
Notes
The clear glass body provides a transparent canvas for the swirling brown and white patterns, creating a sophisticated and elegant effect. It displays Reade's ability to create visually striking patterns and colour blends. Reade makes his clear glass himself, from "true Cape sand", and each piece starts as a ball of molten glass at the end of an iron pipe. His assistant then blows through the pipe, while he shapes the ball, using hand-held tools.
