Via Wrights Indian Arts: Like a magic flower, the blown glass shade has a bud-like, tapered oval form. It is a combination of soft greens, with highlights of yellow and white to brighten the palette.⠀ ⠀ Predominantly a mellow moss-green, it has pale apple green accents, as well as regular lines of black, on transparent green, that divide the pale circles.⠀ ⠀ The lines and circles may refer to raindrops and rainfall, Native good-luck signs, and a nod to the artist’s Pueblo heritage.⠀ ⠀ Looking inside the glass shade, it is more complex than it seems from outside. Many different colors are involved in creating the exterior look.⠀ ⠀ On a clear glass base, transparent, bright grass-green and white have been applied, among others. Large areas of thick, white glass form most of the light-colored circles on the exterior.⠀ ⠀ All these colors and designs were created while the glass was molten, still on the revolving blower’s rod.⠀ ⠀ As textured and complex as the glass is, the hand-made metal base is smooth and shiny, with simple, unadorned elements.⠀ ⠀ Artist: Tony Jojola
