Large Incalmo Wallbowl w/ Murrini Center

This *very large* incalmo wallbowl is made from several separate sections coming together to form an absolutely gorgeous one-of-a-kind wallbowl. Incalmo is an extremely complex technique where each section is made separately and then they are joined one at a time while the glass is still hot. And measuring almost 2.5 feet across, this is a really large wallbowl!

The inner section features brightly colored murrini on top of a dark background. Working with murrini is a three stage time consuming process, first Dirwood hand pulled the canes used to make the murrini after which he cut the canes into the individual murrini pieces, then he used the murrini to make patterns on the glass as he made this wall bowl. The inner section is followed by a band of clear and orange glass, a perfect compliment and border to such an amazing and detailed inner section.

Wall bowls can be hung on a wall just like a picture or they can also be set out as a table platter. To hang the bowl on a wall, all you need is a secure hook on the wall and a hanging apparatus comes along with the bowl. Hanging the bowl is a breeze and should take less than 10 minutes. You won't believe the compliments you are sure to receive when displaying this gorgeous wall bowl!

*Note that the white spots on the glass are reflections from the photo lights.
