The Chrome glass heart has a wavy lustrous surface that reflects the space in which it stands. Like an optical illusion it is reminiscent of Cloud Gate the massive sculpture by Anish Kapoor, located in Chicago. Just a fraction of the size and in the shape of full heart. Each size glass Heart rests naturally in the Iron Vine Stand. The solid steel vine stands are welded and shaped by hand for each individual heart. Resting firmly atop the bottle neck of the Heart is the hand-forged Iron Flower Cap. 

The glass heart should not be used for holding nor serving drinkable liquids. 

The “Urnest” vessels are the result of a joint endeavor. The process product design & development bonded our immediate family to our extended family of artisans. An alliance that required years of technical design alterations in glass blowing, mold making, and artisanal iron work. <<From The Ashes>>

About This Zenwaro Original Design. Beautiful glass hearts forged from recycled grass bottle rests wonderfully within a hand forged iron vine stand, that is hand painted in satin / flat finish. The chrome glass heart appearance comes for mercury paint that is added after the molten glass cools to room temperature. A hand forged Iron Flower Crown / Cap sits atop the Mercury heart. The flower cap is fitted with a cork that tightly fits into the neck of the glass heart, and completes this recycled work of art. The glass sculpture comes in small and medium sizes.
The iron vine stand in which the Mercury Heart sits, is hand-forged by our talented blacksmiths. Beginning with 1/4" thick solid steel bars that are cut into specific sizes then individual bars are heated, hammered, welded, and sculpted into an organic entirely unique Iron Vine Stand that have 8 sculpted solid steel arms to hold each size heart naturally it is as though vines have grown around the heart.

Artisanal Glass-blowing that is 100% Sustainable.
Our extended family of artisans utilize recycled glass that is delivered by the truckload from local recycling yards. Mounds of discarded bottles and other glass articles are transferred into the studio then lightly clean, crush, and heated the glass in large kilns where temperatures reach 1700˚F. The artisans then pour the hot glass into our signature designed heart shaped molds. The chrome glass appearance will appear slightly different on each heart, ensuring no 2 hearts are exactly the same.
