This piece was retired but there are a limited number still available." Robust, " daring, " textured, and " vibrantare all words that describe
Dale Chihuly's Macchia series. Spurred by a desire to incorporate all colors into his work, Chihuly created a series that dazzles with color juxtapositions. " With them I felt for the first time that a piece of glass held its own in a room, says Chihuly of this dynamic series.
Moroccan Macchia Pair revels in speckles and contrasts. This handblown two-part Studio Edition, measuring approximately eleven inches across, celebrates Chihuly's interest in combining more than one element and many colors into his work. A brilliant rose red floods the interior, while buttery yellows dapple the exterior. Multicolored spots and a thin deep red body wrap add dimension to the surface, while a moss green lip wrap captures the billowing outline of both elements.
This signed 2003 Portland Press Studio Edition is shipped with an elegant Plexiglas case for display. A copy of
Chihuly alla Macchia, a fifty-four-page publication with full-color photos of Chihuly's
Macchia glass and drawings, completes the set.
Portland Press is delighted to offer
Moroccan Macchia Pair, a remarkable work with adventurous spirit.
