There is something satisfying about a simple red ornament done well. Scarlet relies on nothing more than color, form, and the way light moves through glass. Handblown by Lisa Oakley at Cedar Creek Gallery, it features rich red glass with subtle movement and variation throughout the surface, revealing new details as the light changes.
At about 3.25" in diameter, Scarlet is substantial enough to stand on its own yet versatile enough to blend easily with a collection of favorite ornaments gathered over the years. Each one is handcrafted, making every piece slightly different from the next.
