Fresh, young shoots from the ostrich fern emerge from the ground every spring and display a unique shape that resembles the scroll on a violin (or fiddle), giving these fern heads their name.
Cedar Creek Gallery Studio Artist Harrison Harper has recreated these early spring beauties in hand-blown glass for you to enjoy in your garden year-round!
The ferns are designed to be displayed on a rebar stake pushed into the ground. Every fern includes a 17.5" pre-cut length of rebar.
Choose from three different styles:
- Dense Green
- Light Green
- Green Encased in Clear Glass
Since these ferns are hand-crafted, expect slight differences in size and design. In general, they range in size from 10" - 12" tall, and 3" - 4" wide at the "fiddlehead" top.

About Harrison Harper
Harrison Harper began his career as a glass artist in 2002, creating lamps. He transitioned from lampworking, where artists use a torch to melt cold glass, to offhand glass blowing, where artists use a blowpipe and hot glass.
In 2004 Harrison began working with artist Lisa Oakley at Oakley Studio Glass. Two years later, he began working as a full-time glassblower but stepped back to be a stay-at-home dad when his first child was born. Harrison remained a studio artist at Cedar Creek until moving to Washington State in 2018. In 2021, Harrison and his family moved back to North Carolina, and he resumed working as a studio artist at Oakley Studio Glass.
