Make a wish on the lone star embryo suspended in this cosmic paperweight. Meticulous hot glass sculpting creates a glittering starburst swirl of silver glass against an inky night sky backdrop. A handcrafted treasure from Caithness artisans, this galactic accent makes an uplifting gift.
Crafting Method: Sand is pushed up through the clear glass with a metal crimp in the shape of the star. Swirls of gold, white and grey canes are melted into the side of the weight along with a range of different blue and gold flecked chips. The whole piece is then encased in clear glass and shaped with a wooden block before being put into the kiln to cool.
