Undercover II

Effie inherited this antique glass dome with an ivory hook from her grandfather and it inspired an entirely new way of working. Glass as a material has completely transformed the way we see the world, from microscope slides to telescope lenses. Effie wanted to create a piece that would capture some of that spirit of inquiry and wonder. The glass dome both protects and creates reflections of the work inside – a cast glass form with polished details topped by a lampworked glass tree.
