Produced during the 1980s, the piece has the weight and strong sculptural presence associated with Finnish glass of the period.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"352\" data-end=\"528\"\u003eThe irregular outline spreads outward like a natural stone formation.

Every curve catches the light differently, so the form changes as it is viewed from above or from the side.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"989\" data-end=\"1015\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"989\" data-end=\"1015\"\u003eBowl and Candle Holder\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1017\" data-end=\"1224\"\u003eThe central recess can be used for a small candle, while the broad sculptural shape also works as a decorative bowl.
