Lot 547 : Estimate £1,000-£1,200

Vic Bamforth - Varekai - Cone V - A tall tapered sleeve form vase featuring images of the Red House Cone in a Graal technique, engraved signature and title, height 34 cm. The highly demanding and skilful technique of Graal has invariably been approached in a very familiar and traditional way. Vic's approach to Graal is a very contemporary development - each piece is individually hand painted using high firing enamels. Vic combines his glass blowing and painting skills to create one-off pieces which are collected internationally and exhibited both in the UK and abroad. Notable international exhibitions include India, Japan, Germany and several cities in the USA (including SOFA Chicago 2006, 2007) and the British Glass Biennale in 2008. He can be seen working in his studio at the nearby Ruskin Glass Centre. www.vicbamforthglass.com
