CONTEMPORARY HANDMADE, Kris Parke. Lot of five items. All are off the same cane. The rod was clear glass with two subsurface bands of strands, and a core of air bubbles. There are four marbles, in graduated sizes. And then a small vase that was made from the begin inning of the rod. All signed "Parke 07". Marbles are 2-1/16", 1-13/16", 1-9/16", 1-1/4". Vase is 4-7/8" tall, 5" wide at lip, 3" wide at base. Marbles can either be displayed as a graduate set around the vase, or placed within the vase (a la a Matthews bowl set). Superb and possibly unique set.
