Collector's delight in WELL documented collectibles...this piece is signed (on the bottom) with the BEAUTIFULLY CARVED, scripted "F" for Fenton, as well as, the handsigned Kelsey/Bompkamp signatures, and #14/50 markings. The name of the design, "Entwined" is also carved into the bottom!
HURRY COLLECTORS....ONLY ONE left!!!!The picture shown is the ACTUAL piece you will receive!
Cameo carving is a painstaking process. After the glass has been annealed, a special mask is taped to the surface of the glass. Using an advanced "vignetting" technique, each piece is carefully sandcarved, by hand, using aluminum oxide crystal under pressure to take away some of the surface. Great individual skill and experience are needed to control this operation, as many distinct stages of successive cameo carving are required to create the remarkable depth and the intricate details.
