Special Characteristics
Special Characteristics
1. Glass Candy Overview:
- Appearance: The sculpture is designed to resemble a piece of wrapped candy. The main body is spherical and predominantly a warm amber colour, with a smooth, glossy finish that reflects light beautifully.
- Gold Flakes: Embedded within the amber glass are delicate gold flakes, adding a touch of luxury and sparkle. These gold flakes catch the light, creating a shimmering effect that enhances the visual appeal of the piece.
2. Colour and Translucence:
- Amber Hue: The rich, vibrant amber colour is both striking and elegant.
- The glass is slightly translucent, allowing light to pass through and give the candy a glowing appearance when illuminated.
3. Design Details:
- Twisted Ends: The candy features two twisted ends, mimicking the look of a real candy wrapper.
- These ends are slightly flared out and have subtle striping in shades of amber and a darker red-brown, adding depth and realism.
- Expert Craftsmanship: The twists are delicately crafted, showcasing the expertise of the glassblower. The transitions from the spherical centre to the twisted ends are smooth and seamless.
4. Manufacturing Characteristics:
- Handblown Artistry: One end of the candy has a small hole, typical of handblown glass items. This hole indicates where the glassblower attached the piece to a rod or pontil during the sculpting process, confirming the handcrafted nature of the sculpture.
- Smooth Surface: The candy’s surface is smooth, without any visible seams or mould lines, further verifying that it was shaped by hand rather than being produced in a mould.
