The famous glass artist Copier always made his pieces together with specialist glassblowers. He made this piece in Murano, in collaboration with the Italian master glassblower Lino Tagliapietra. The so-called reticello effect with thin rods of coloured glass is executed here with great refinement and regularity. The piece was presented on Copier’s 85th birthday.
