Topaz Murini Agate Jar, a Blue & Purple Cast Glass Sculpture by Angela Jarman

About the Item

Topaz Murini Agate Jar is a unique blue, purple and pink sculptural / jar artwork created from cast glass by the British artist Angela Jarman. Using the lost wax technique, the base is cast blue lead crystal. The top disc insert is created from blue, pink and clear murini with 22-carat gold gilt. Jarman is an artist with over 20 years experience in glass. Technical skill and understanding of her material, combined with a strong aesthetic voice, have meant that her work constantly retains a distinct identity and language of its own. Lost wax casting is a very lengthy and multi-staged process and Jarman’s passion is to be able to realize the work that she wants to make, without compromise. This pursuit of perfection means that she stays true to her ideas and the material qualities of glass. The themes for Jarman’s artworks originate from a lifelong interest in biology and the natural world. Inspiration comes from a range of sources; animal, vegetable and mineral but the one common aspect that unites all her thinking, are the core concepts to do with growth and reproduction, duplication, decay and transformation. Jarman studied at the Royal College of Art receiving her Master’s degree in 2001. She exhibits both in the UK and internationally and has work held in public and private collections worldwide. In 2003 she was shortlisted for the Jerwood Applied Arts Prize and in 2008 won the Established Artist Prize International Glass Context. She teaches regularly and has been a visiting lecturer at the Royal College of Art as well as teaching master classes within the UK and France. She lives and works in Hertfordshire, England.

Warp & Fade 017, a Unique Blue, Purple & Red Glass Sculpture by Liam Reeves
By Liam Reeves
Located in London, GB
Warp & Fade 017 is a unique handblown glass vessel with fine white cane detail created by the British artist Liam Reeves. Incorporating layers of glass, the top colours in blue and red merge to create a larger spectrum, as the hues blur from one to the other. The entire piece is finally sandblasted creating a soft satin, diffused finish. Liam Reeves has been making glass professionally since 1998 when he graduated from Middlesex University with a BA (Hons) in three-dimensional design. During this time he has honed his skills whilst working in the glass industry for some of the best glassmakers in the UK. In 2009 Reeves studied for an MA at the RCA in order to explore the creative possibilities of the medium of glassblowing. He is currently hot-glass technician at the very same and prestigious Royal College of Art in London. While at the RCA Liam discovered a passion for investigating pivotal techniques from glassblowing’s two-millennia of rich history. From the mould blowing of ancient Rome to the complex goblet-making techniques of Renaissance Venice...
