Mosaic Monday

 Gorgeous Mosaic Bowl – One-of-a-Kind Upcycled Art

 Originally a vintage sponge-painted bowl, this piece caught my eye in a secondhand store. Pretty as it was, I saw its true potential as a unique mosaic artwork. After its creative facelift, it now weighs a substantial 3 lbs 5 oz and is ready to shine as a decorative centerpiece.

Stained Glass and Smalti
7 x 4 inches
$150 USD 

The mosaic design inside the bowl features a mix of beautiful stained glass in shades of blue, beige and blue-green glass tiles, medium tan and blue glass gems, and blue Smalti — richly colored, traditional mosaic tesserae once used in Byzantine art. The metal oxides in Smalti create stunning depth and variation in color, making each piece truly unique.




This bowl is decorative and functional: it looks striking in both sunlight and lamplight. Whether as a thoughtful gift or a special touch for your own space, it’s sure to be appreciated for the craftsmanship and care that went into its creation.

Please Note:

Not suitable for food or liquids

For indoor use only

 

Enjoy the journey.

Mosaic Monday - Mosaic Bowl

 

Materials: stained glass, glass gems, glass tiles

Dimensions: Height: 2.5 Inches; Width: 7 Inches

Isn't this an awesome piece of art? I've added some mosaic magic to an old discarded ceramic serving bowl. Simple designs in orange, amber and brown in glass and ceramic tiles cover the inside giving it an updated look.


I'm very proud of creating useful art. Here's a great example of how to recycle and reuse something. By recycling this bowl I've conserved valuable natural resources and saved something that would otherwise be buried in a landfill.

Give this as a wedding gift, offering the happy couple a sustainable gift as you hope their union will be. This should last for years if cared for properly. Add it to any room in your home. It can be used to hold stuff and things but remember it is first and foremost a piece of art.


Set it in the center of a table to make a statement. Place it at the door to let your friends and family see it the very minute they enter your home. Make a statement and always consider buying from an artisan. Supporting handmade is never a bad thing.

Keep in mind this is for decorative purposes only. Not for long term storage for food or liquids. To clean this bowl you can run it under warm water with mild soap if necessary and wipe out with a damp sponge. Do NOT use harsh chemicals. Do NOT place in dishwasher or submerge in water.


This awesome bowl measures 2.5 inches high and 7 inches wide.

Indoor use only.

Mosaic Monday - Mosaic Bowl, Stained Glass and Smalti

Materials: stained glass, glass gems, grout

Dimensions: Height: 7 Inches; Width: 4 Inches

This is one gorgeous mosaic bowl! This originally was a vintage sponge painted bowl pretty as it was, but I saw more potential for it as a piece of mosaic art.


I created the mosaic inside the bowl using beautiful stained glass in blues, glass tiles in beige and blue/green, glass gems in a medium tan color and blue Smalti (specialized mosaic tesserae made from richly colored glass. Originally developed for Byzantine mosaics, the glass contains metal oxides which produce an almost infinite range of color possibilities.)

This beauty can be useful but it looks great just as it is. It looks wonderful in the sunlight and lamplight. Chances are when gift-giving time comes around, you will be sure to find someone who can appreciate the time and attention it took to create this mosaic.


Great for newlyweds or anniversaries. Gift yourself! You deserve a treat! Place it in the center of a table in the living room, dining room or entryway. Can be used for keys and coins, or just as it is without anything in it. I've used these mosaic bowls for my hair brush, scrunchies, ponytail holders, barrettes, etc.; must be protected due to possible scratching of the glass and/or staining of the grout.

Not recommended for foods of any kind.

To clean this bowl you can run it under warm water with mild soap if necessary and gently wipe out with a damp sponge. Do NOT use harsh chemicals. Do NOT place in dishwasher or submerge in water.

This awesome bowl measures 7 inches high and about 4 inches high.

Decorative purposes only. Indoor Use Only.
