I like the glass sculptures. There is a museum in St Petersburg ( Fl) of his work...
Many very different pieces.

Completely disagree.
My only issue is its more "team" Don Chihuly than just the individual but it was his vision and style
to start with.
I think its incredibly creative and a joy to see, if you've ever actually seen his/their work in person.

Your opinion is insignificant.

Double download is a must to see the detail. This is a beautiful piece. We have a couple of his pieces owned by our Fine Arts Center here in Colorado Springs. Always a joy to behold. Thanks for sharing this piece with us all!!!!

Beautiful, it is my opinion that anyone who calls Chihuly a con artist doesn’t know very much about glass blowing.

Great picture, great detail, but it looks like a furball to me.

Agree. I saw his show at, IIRC, the Botanical Gardens in NYC. I thought it was great.
The sculptures floating in the water were awesome.
They look incredibly fragile but I was told they are pretty resilient. I wanted to ask how many pieces got
broken trying to put some of the displays together but didnt' get a chance to ask.

😜 What! Based on that, there’s no difference between a basketball, a baseball, or a marble. After all, they are all round. I’ve 5 (not a lot, I’ll admit) and they were spectacular and unique. 👍👍👍
