With its swirls of colour and attractive scalloped edge, this striking little nut bowl is a perfect example of Irish contemporary design. It is both beautiful as a standalone piece and also as a dish for nuts, olives and hors d'oeuvres.
The scalloped edge can only be achieved when finished by hand on the pontil iron by Jerpoint's skilled glassmakers.
Jerpoint individually hand make each vase at their Glass-blowing Studio in Co. Kilkenny, using skills and methods that have hardly changed for thousands of years. With their breath, a few simple tools and decades of craftsmanship the Glass makers turn molten glass into the colourful vases that Jerpoint Glass are renowned for.
