Lapis Vitrolith. 4.5" x 3" x 1.5"
Title: Lapis Vitrolith
Dimensions: 4.5” x 3” x 1.5”
Materials: Cast royal blue glass and Lapis
Description: Every week, there’s a piece that makes me think ‘regal, elegant’—this is the one. Lapis has been used throughout history for so many things—most know about the inlaid semi-precious bits in King Tut’s sarcophagus, but I doubt some will have heard of hand-ground pigments artists created for oil paintings during the Renaissance. Lapis carries a rich, complex history that stretches across nearly all of human civilization.
Cast, cut, ground, laminated, carved, and polished. With love.
Please note: Indoor display only. Some glass forms lenses, which can cause fires—place in direct sunlight with caution. There are bubbles in my work. International shipping takes a long time. Please be patient and know that you will be paying VAT/customs.
