Bowls & Vases
Thal Glass bowls and vases are inspired by the natural beauty of Wyoming, the Grand Tetons, and worldly travels by the artists, Laurie Thal and Dan Altweis. Each functional glass art piece expresses nature, a sense of calm, and balance— enhancing any home or office. Jackson Hole glass artist, Daniel Altweis' intricately sandblasted designs add a depth and complexity to each vessel he collaborates on with artist, Laurie Thal.
Every piece is individually designed, drawn, and hand cut, revealing layers of rich colors in the sandblasting process. Many bowls have a deeply carved lip which takes many hours of patient and skillful sandblasting. Their simple elegance and beauty are intended to add joy to each home, office, hotel, and a collector’s life.
