A hand-blown glass amphora by Louis Andrew Schaffer, this piece is defined by its broad, grounded form and softly tapered neck. The silhouette carries a sense of weight and stability, balanced by the fluid transitions of color across the surface.
 
Layers of rich crimson, warm earth tones, and iridescent accents move across the glass in a painterly composition, creating depth and visual texture. The interplay of opaque and translucent areas allows light to shift across the form, revealing subtle variation from every angle.
 
Both bold and nuanced, this work reflects Schaffer’s ability to combine sculptural form with expressive surface treatment.
