Signed Michael J. Reid (1997) Studio Art Glass Sculpture

An exquisite and rare 1997 art glass paperweight/sculpture by renowned Seattle glass artist, Michael J. Reid. This piece showcases Reid's mastery of the medium with its striking pyramidal form and internal artistry. The clear glass body encases a faceted, Cobalt Blue core that captures and refracts light, giving the illusion of a glowing "jewel" at the center. 24K pure gold foil inclusions are dramatically suspended within the glass, creating a dazzling cascade that trails downward, enhancing the deep blue and giving the piece a brilliant, three-dimensional shimmer. The base is hand-signed and dated by the artist, confirming its originality: "Michael J. Reid 1997 24K". Designer: Michael J. Reid (American) Year: 1997 Features: Cobalt Blue Casing, 24K Gold Inclusions, Faceted Clear Glass Style: Studio Art Glass, Contemporary, Paperweight/Sculpture
