Realistic Glass Berry Sculptures In Glass Pastry Shell
This pate-de-verre pie shell holds a colorful assortment of my realistic lampworked glass berry sculptures including one medium strawberry, three Bing cherries, three Rainier cherries, three blackberries, three red raspberries, three green gooseberries, seven ripe blueberries and three unripe blueberries.
You may create your own combination of berries to fill the tart shell.
The final price will vary according to the number and types of berries you choose. The pictured combination including the pie shell is priced at $1,200.00.
I create the lifelike coloring details by mixing unique glass colors, by controlled heating and cooling, or by adding powdered glass that is permanently melted into the surface of each glass berry. Any "stems" are made of copper wire which is embedded into the glass.
These tiny treasures are so realistic that you must store them where they can't be accidentally mistaken for real food, especially by children! They will last as heirlooms for many generations to come.
