Circular with bulbous sides curving inwards at the top, standing on a narrow, ground base. The yellow glass has been cut away to leave a circular disk in the centre with lines radiating from it. This pattern, combined with the sand-carving on the exterior produces the effect of grasses and weeds waving upwards. This is much enhanced by shining light through the bowl and viewing it from a low vantage point.C.2-20021accession numberC.2-200241104priref41104entry form number164urihttps://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/41104https://data.fitzmuseum.cam.ac.uk/id/object/41104on baseengravedRosedaleinscriptionon baseengravedGillies Jonesmaker's markon baseengraved2001/53datereferenceagent-149638adlib-agent-1496387376d833-d0a7-3be0-916e-9c892b7a24d8The Fitzwilliam MuseumGiven by Nicholas and Judith Goodison through the National Art Collections Fund.referenceagent-156032adlib-agent-1560323aded83c-6f5c-39b8-a50c-07f712e01b2cGoodison, Nicholas and Judith200220022002-01-21givenThe donors requested that they should be known by their Christian names and not, as previously, as Sir Nicholas and Lady Goodison.2001CE20012001glassmakersreferenceagent-161317adlib-agent-16131725ef3a01-3bc4-3303-9e56-9e1a1ea88fcfGillies Jones GlassKate Jones and Stephen Gillies work together under the name Gillies-Jones GlassText from object entry in A. Game (2016) ‘Contemporary British Crafts: The Goodison Gift to the Fitzwilliam Museum’. London: Philip Wilson Publishers: Stephen Gillies and Kate Jones both studied at Stourbridge College of Art, Gillies studying Glass Design and Jones, Fine Art. They established their joint studio in Yorkshire in 2005 to develop a range of contemporary glassware for everyday life. They draw inspiration from the patterns and histories of the North Yorkshire landscape that surrounds their studio and from their commitment to the demanding skill of hot glassmaking. In the past two decades, they have created a distinctive collection of batch-produced glass bowls that are exhibited and collected internationally as well as pushing their technical and creative limits through a range of larger free-form one-off bowls. This work was an early part of a series entitled Ubiquitous Bowls. Stephen Gillies and Kate Jones: ‘The bowl, the vessel form, has always been our form of choice. To free blow a symmetrical, thin walled bowl is one of the toughest disciplines within blown glass.’referenceterm-109891adlib-term-109891ad6efeb2-90e2-3107-ada3-8348ed09c40f21st Century, Earlyreferenceterm-107700adlib-term-1077008f5360fb-b262-3ae9-8942-b81cc0e3e848Elizabeth IIreferenceterm-113728adlib-term-113728ac4a294c-2a0e-31ad-a24a-ad5083dc4a12literalEnglandEnglandcountryliteralNorth YorkshireNorth YorkshireregionPickeringreferenceterm-91170adlib-term-91170d49ca0b4-ccae-3039-afe0-882c186cff25glassDiametercm38.5Heightcm14referencemedia-196714adlib-media-196714a24d293b-4db6-3a4a-9abf-bbedea7fd516jpegaa/aa33/large_C_2_2002_200806_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels682widthpixels102316162699537711imagejpegaa/aa33/mid_C_2_2002_200806_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels333widthpixels50016162699537711imagejpegaa/aa33/C_2_2002_200806_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels683widthpixels102516162699537711imagejpegaa/aa33/preview_C_2_2002_200806_mfj22_dc2.jpg1heightpixels167widthpixels25016162699537711image0media
