Frosted Glass

This bowl of recycled glass captures the organic textures and color of ancient, glacial ice. But rather than being formed over frozen centuries, the translucent material is created by heat fusing layer upon layer of reclaimed windowpane glass. Display the bowl on its own as an elegant, sculptural accent, or fill it with vibrant fruit or flowers for a striking and useful visual statement.

The solid heft of the piece conveys the quality and craftsmanship that goes into its making. It comes from the OATKA Glass Studio, located in a 19th century warehouse in the former industrial belt of upstate New York. In the language of the indigenous Seneca nation, "oatka" means "through the opening"--this is both the name of a local creek, and an appropriate title for a studio that prides itself for working with reclaimed window glass, rescuing it from becoming landfill waste. The iron oxide impurities in old glass give the bowl an ethereal, glacial green color, and the layered, uneven edges of the raw glass create a compelling, visual depth and a mottled texture that welcomes tactile exploration. The handmade nature of the piece and its materials mean that each will have unique variations in texture and color, including Handmade in Batavia, NY.
