Winter Mountains P07709-P00446 cushion-cut square of sterling silverStarting with clear sheet for the base glass, artist Amanda Taylor incorporates both cold and hot working techniques into this multilayered glass sculpture, but no paint or enamel: it's all multicolored layers of glass, frit and cane worked into the organic forms that make up this dimensional landscape. It rests on a "rock" made from cured cement, insuring a sturdy base for display. Signed by the artist Materials: Glass, Concrete
