This tangerine bowl from Blenko Glass is meant to resemble a sunflower. The vibrant mineral colors of the bowl fade from tangerine on the base to sunny yellow at the top. This unique glass bowl was created with a process known as centrifugal casting by the West Virginia based Blenko Glass Company, a stained glass maker since  1893. The bowl is 12” in diameter and 6” deep.
