Charles Miner learned to carve porcelain while taking workshops in clay. He transfers this skill into glass by cutting elaborate patterns into the walls of his cast vessels. The simple form of Chatterly highlights its luminous color and detailed surface design.
“I believe that these Ancient Vessels will live long lives of romance, mystery and passion with whomever they travel.” Charles Miner, 1999
