Victoran Blown Glass Spire

Blown glass ornaments seem to carry a delicate echo of the Victorian era, somehow. It’s something about the graceful lines and fine detail, and the fragility of the material. In the hands of a master glass artist, like James Byrnes, and in a design that’s frankly Victorian, the resulting heirloom ornament can be almost irresistible… This ornament, Victorian Blue Spire, and other of Byrnes’ art glass works, can be found among the new pieces at Artful Home.
