Item Description
"The Dance" Cameo Vase by Kelsey Murphy
15" x 5"
About the Artist
Artists Kelsey Murphy and Robert Bomkamp call their southern West Virginia studio "Made in Heaven," and the name is an apt one, indeed. Collectors and museums alike have come to regard Kelsey and Robert's work as "heavenly!" Kelsey and Robert specialize in glass cameo carving, an exacting art that demands both skill in design and great dexterity in execution. They teamed with Fenton Art Glass to design and produce some remarkable limited edition pieces. Kelsey's Dragonflies on Ebony Favrene was part of Fenton's limited edition Horizons group in 2006, and her Gauley River Sunrise Vase (limited to 375) on Fenton's Burmese glass was an instant hit with Fenton collectors when it debuted in late 2006. Likewise, Robert's West Virginia Woodland lamp on Burmese sold out in record time.
This piece was made available by Tamarack Marketplace. To learn more about Tamarack, visit tamarackwv.com.
