About Reflections
The beauty of a clear, cool stream—the water rippling beneath a bed of rocks is captured in this dynamic tabletop sculpture by Cheryl Wilson Smith. The glass artist finds inspiration in the rugged, rocky landscape that surrounds her home.This piece features a clear, glass rectangular bed—the water and a curated collection of ‘stones’ in an earthy palette—each hand formed and fired from layers of glass frit (ground glass).
