Glass Flower Exhibit, Mon 11 Jul 2005
I saw this over 30 years ago and was so delighted with it. The realism was just fantastic and it clearly showed the development of the flower from bud to full bloom. I am not sure exactly when these were produced and how they fit into the development of Art Nouveau glass, but each item was just a gem in and of itself. If you loved the Lalique Iris (made of sapphires at the Walters), you will love these as well. Just a breath of spring time any time.

Absolutely astonishing! The marriage of artistry and engineering is breathtaking. A must see. I would recommend this for older children.
