The Beauty of Mistral


"Mistral" in Seabreeze

First piece in the Blenko Celebration Series

Mistral -inspired by a new color and a wind that blows in the Mediterranean.
The new shape and rippling optic surface was designed by Arlon Bayliss as the first piece in the new "Blenko Celebration Series". This piece will be introduced during the "Festival of Glass" on August 23, 2008.
"I wanted to create a piece that was just perfect for the new color, "Seabreeze". The surface undulates with ripples, like the surface of water in the wind, and the multiple curves of the shape capture light and intensifies this amazing color. The lively form is also reminiscent of Mediterranean and near Eastern vessels." -Arlon Bayliss Blenko Designer
