Votive – Amber

A vessel of clear glass holds a pool of amber liquid at its centre, creating a luminous contrast between transparency and warm colour. The form is volumetric and organic, with a subtle asymmetry that suggests the hand-shaping process inherent to glassblowing. Light passes through the clear walls, catching the amber interior and casting soft reflections on the surface below. The work exemplifies Reade’s distinctive approach to functional and sculptural glasswork, where utility and contemplative form merge.
