Description
Pick up this great gift idea. These bowls are stellar examples of the surprising beauty that can be achieved through upcycling ”the process of transforming waste or surplus materials into beautiful and useful new objects. Glass artist Nanda Soderberg takes wine and beer bottles bound for the recycling bin (or worse the trash) and reshapes them into bowls that retain only a hint of their past lives. The green glass bowl is upcycled from a wine bottle and the brown bowl from a 22 ounce beer bottle. Soderberg cuts the bottles to the desired height heats the vessel in a kiln to make it pliable enough to be reshaped into a bowl form and heat-fuses gestural strokes of gold leaf to the surface of the glass. The resulting bowls retain a fluidity that reflects the upcycling process imbued with a preciousness through the interplay of glass and gold leaf. They make striking containers for party snacks candy or pot pourri. Handmade in Manchester NH.
