Beautiful glass sphere made by Layne Rowe. Free blown and carved glass, originally purchased at London Glassblowing, the UK's premier glassblowing art studio. Layne Rowe is an exceptionally skilled glass artist whose journey began in the 1990s during his 3D design degree at the University of Central Lancashire. Layne was driven by a desire to create beautiful objects through skilful techniques and creative colour applications. Layne's work has been widely exhibited around the world, notably in the V&A's Power of Making exhibition and annually at Collect since 2013. In 2014 he showed alongside Grayson Perry and Alexander McQueen in Subversive Design. Over his 30-year career with Peter Layton at London Glassblowing, his artistic journey has continually pushed creative boundaries through perfectly controlled yet organic glass explorations of nature's colours and patterns.
