The Bonaventure Bowl from Currey & Company begins as molten glass dropped from a blowing pipe, then shaped by hand using traditional glassmaking techniques. Delicate swirling striations occur naturally during the forming process, creating movement and depth across the pale surface. The top edge is cut with scissors while the glass remains workable, giving each bowl its irregular rim. An opalescent finish shifts subtly as light moves across the surface, ensuring each handcrafted piece has unique characteristics.
