Paperweights, perfume bottles, eggs, vases and sculptures have been designed to reflect the artist's obsession with the extra-ordinary, creating a distinctive line of fine art glass.Many of the exquisite designs incorporate the use of precious metals such as gold and silver and rare oxides such as cobalt and copper. By combining the intriguing contrast of soft and bold colors, Eickholt glass has mastered the use of depth and space to create a piece of incomparable beauty and personality all its own.
