Glass mosaic bowl
Translucent spirals and contrasting opaque patches give this bowl the appearance of an intricate mosaic. Mosaic glass vessels were produced by cutting multicolored canes (rods) into slices, fusing the small pieces together, and then casting the disk into shape while the glass was still hot. This shallow bowl has an unusual shape and appearance for mosaic glass, which may have been a factor in Moore’s selection of the piece.
