Presenting an exceptionally large and impressive Australian Studio art glass paperweight masterfully hand crafted and signed by one of Australia's leading contemporary glass artists, Philip Stokes in 1983 as a part of his early "Freeformed" gallery range. This magnificent piece features sweeping veils of various shades of opaque blue radiating around a central tubular core. The radiating design adds a dynamic sense of movement to the stylish contemporary abstract design. The cool blue colours are encased within the solid clear form which acts like a lens, magnificently magnifying and distorting the shapes and tones within. This spectacular paperweight is a fabulous example of gallery quality Australian art glass expertly executed and beautifully finished by a master glass artist.
