 Gartner/Blade Ikebana Bowl
5”Diameter or 8” Diameter Media Ikebana Bowl A great holiday gift idea from Kuivato Glass Gallery. Stephen Gartner and Danielle Blade have been combining their individual ideas, techniques and experiences to create original hand-blown and sculpted glass pieces for over 10 years. The inspiration for many of their pieces comes from their mutual fascination with the use of found objects in the rituals of primitive cultures. Each Ikebana is a hand-blown Japanese flower vase. The center of the bowl contains solid brass pins which allow the user to display the flowers to their preference, with greater creativity, and for low lying as well as tall arrangements. Each hand-blown bowl is both beautiful and highly functional.

“Einstein”Bob Black
Hand-built clay figure
16.5” high, 4” wide, 4” deep
A great holiday gift idea from Inner Eye Gallery. Albert Einstein holding a cigarette in one hand and showing the “Peace” sign with the other. Arizona artist Bob Black’s clever and whimsical “People Pottery” has been a favorite for many years. Made of clay, every figure has its own distinctive personality. Black’s characters take on his moods and, by using photos and descriptions, he can make them to resemble just about anyone. “Making the figures is therapeutic. I can release all my aggressions with these guys”. We know you will enjoy your one-of-a-kind piece. You may even find yourself talking to it.
