This silver-fumed spiral galaxy marble captures the look of a deep vortex frozen in glass. I start with a clear borosilicate core, then fume the exterior with pure silver to create ethereal, misty tones suspended within the clear surface. I draw thin clear lines around the fumed layer to trap the silver in place.
I bring the whole piece to a molten state and give it a slow twist aligning the patterns into a spiral reminiscent of a distant galaxy. When viewed from the front, the design pulls the eye inward with a vortex-like depth, giving the illusion of falling into a swirling cloud of silver light. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Size 1.1 inches/ 29mm and comes with a plastic marble stand. -The marble is signed and dated, by me, on the back (BAM 2026) -Photos were taken with indoor led lights. -Made in Northern Wisconsin. -Glass marble has been annealed in a digital kiln to strengthen and remove all stress in the glass.
