Molten glass meets Gamal wood in a sculptural vessel that feels both fluid and grounded. Hand-blown glass is shaped over natural root wood, creating a glass bowl on driftwood-style base for stones, air plants, cut flowers, floating candles or a quiet decorative centrepiece.
Where glass softens around wood
The contrast is the first thing you notice: smooth glass held by the uneven character of natural wood.
It brings an art-object feeling to a shelf, table or windowsill, even before anything is placed inside.
Use it as a calm setting for tumbled stones, a small air plant, or a simple arrangement of cut flowers.
With a floating candle, the bowl becomes a low, reflective pool of light for a still evening corner.
Each piece carries natural variation, because the glass takes its form from the individual wood base beneath it.
Hand-blown glass and Balinese Gamal wood
This piece is made in Bali from recycled glass and sustainable Gamal wood, also known as Gliricidia sepium. The glass is hand-blown, then shaped while hot over the root form, so it settles into the contours of the wood as it cools.
The result is not a perfectly uniform vessel. It is meant to hold the slight irregularities of the material and the making, with glass and wood meeting in a way that feels organic rather than machine-cut.
Ways to style it at home
Keep the styling simple so the shape can breathe. A few stones, an air plant, a stem or two of flowers, or a floating candle are enough to let the molten glass on wood bowl become the focus.
For flowers or candles, place it where it can be watched and enjoyed, away from busy edges or anything easily knocked. If using with water, empty it after use and dry the surrounding area carefully.
Caring for glass and root wood
Clean the glass gently with a soft cloth. Keep the wooden base away from prolonged damp, soaking or harsh cleaning products, as natural wood can mark or change with moisture.
