An homage to anatomy and artistry, the Anatomical Heart Vase captures the vivid form and textural complexity of the human heart using multiple glassblowing techniques. The vessel begins with a blown bubble, submerged in water to create a rippled surface evoking muscle tissue. While still hot, molten colored details are added and sculpted into sinewy veins, layering lifelike detail onto the surface.
Transferred onto punty, the vase is carefully cut and carved into multiple ventricles, forming chambers and passageways that mirror the heart's actual anatomy. Hollow and functional, this sculptural piece serves as a striking vase or a standalone work of art—merging science and emotion in glass.
Approximate Dimensions: 5" x 5" x 5"
Please note: Each Anatomical Heart Vase is individually sculpted, layered, and cut, resulting in subtle distinctions of shape, vein pattern, and rippled surface that speak to the authenticity of artisan creation. While your piece will closely resemble those pictured, expect nuanced and unique variations—each is solely yours, with its own natural character and beauty.
