Humpback Whale glass sculpture
Humpback Whale glass sculpture
Humpback whales come to Maui every year during our winter. They come to mate, birth, and play.
This listing is for a custom made sculpture with your choice of a Mother and baby whale swimming or breaching with or without the escort male whale. The Breaching whale signifies the mother whale assisting her baby to the surface for it's very "first breath". Each piece is made to order by Sean Price from borosilicate (Pyrex) glass. Sean hand sculpts each piece in the flame using no molds, making each piece one of a kind. Because it is handmade each unique piece will vary in shape, color, and size. You decide how many whales you'd like in your sculpture and Sean will use his creativity to create the perfect flow for the number of pieces.
The whales are made with the purity of crystal clear glass. The first photo shows a Mother whale swimming with her baby. The second photo shows the "first breath" breaching mother and baby. The third photo shows the "first breath" with the escort male whale.
The finished product is based on sand coral collected on the beaches of Maui (each also one of a kind). The sand coral is painted to replicate the look of black Hawaiian lava. Sean uses his skills and creativity to base the piece in a way that flows together with the glass and the size and shape of the base.
Keep in mind... All bases will vary as they are organically made by nature, no base is ever the same. All glass pieces will vary as mentioned above. No two pieces will be the same. What you see in the above pictures is not exactly how your custom piece will be.
Please allow 6-10 weeks for completion (depending on the size of the piece). Once the piece is complete we will send you digital photos with dimensions to approve. Once approved, we will ship. All glass is guaranteed in travel. If it is damaged in shipping we will repair or replace the damaged piece for free.
