Description
Annieglass's 9 inch Roman Antique Gold Rim Soup Bowl is a handmade bowl from the USA that was made in 1994 and is signed and dated. It's made of glass and is suitable for pasta, risotto, soup, or large salads. This bowl is 1.5 inches deep. It is in excellent condition with no defects. This bowl can be acquired as a replacement, or as a decorative plate, for it is truly a work of art. Annieglass, a company that makes glassware, tableware, and glass sculptures, was founded by American glass artist Ann Morhauser in 1981 in her guest room. Morhauser has training in glass techniques from California College of the Arts (CCA) and developed her own version of the ancient glass forming process, called slumping. The first shapes made using slumping were basic circles, squares, and rectangles. Today, Annieglass uses computerized water jet glass cutters to make an endless variety of shapes. After slumping, the pieces are painted with precious metals, then fired in kilns. The pieces are then polished, signed, and sold in 400 department stores and online. From their website: Select collections are hand painted with 24k gold and genuine platinum, and then each piece is individually set by hand into kilns, where at high temperatures the glass drapes over handmade ceramic molds. Precious metals permanently fuse to the glass during this step, and the glass “slumps” into their mold’s individual patterns, rendering each piece of Annieglass a unique work of art. The 24k gold and genuine platinum reveal our artisans’ individual brush strokes, as well as a slightly distressed appearance from the organic materials’ movement during kiln fire. These effects are by no means a defect, but rather are intentionally crafted into every unique Annieglass piece to celebrate the Japanese philosophy of wabi-sabi—in which asymmetry and “imperfection” enhance beauty.
