Hex Capsule
$3,200.00
This vase features a unique color pattern using striped hexagonal shapes. The shape would compliment any space in your home.
The that makes up Hex Capsule is created from hexagon elements. Bands of colored glass are fused into smaller pieces then hand cut into hexagons and arranged so the mosaic resembles a honeycomb. During the , that pattern is pulled and distorted due to all of the different colors reacting differently to the heat. In my process I am constantly working both with and against this phenomenon. The resulting pattern recalls the regularity of the mosaic while having been interpreted by the glassblowing process.

×Mosaic: Building the mosaic is the starting point of the glassblowing process and the culmination of a tremendous amount of work and planning. Making the mosaic is the most creative part of the process, where Jeffrey decides on the colors and their placement in the finished piece, resulting in the specific color interactions. Jeffrey creates each element of the mosaic first, using various techniques to make the bands, squares, and patterns that make up the final design.
×Carving/Cold Sculpting: Carving and cold-sculpting takes place after the piece is completely cooled from the glassblowing process. Jeffrey looks for ways to accentuate and distort the color interactions. He uses all manner of grinding and polishing tools to achieve the different patterns and textures.
×Glassblowing Process: The traditional glassblowing process is the interpretive phase of creating Jeffrey’s work. The mosaic is sculpted while hot onto the end of the blowpipe, and from there he proceeds with traditional glassblowing methods to form the piece into an egg, bowl, vase or other kind of sculpture.
