These vibrant wall platters are a great way to add interest to your home or office. Styled in a classic criss-cross ‘Reticello’ net pattern, this piece is masterfully worked by Tim.

Like colourful, swirly lollipops, these will add a splash of energetic colours to your interior decor.

Each handmade piece is available in either Large or Small.

If you would like three pieces, as in the picture, then you can order two large and one small, and you will receive three pieces approximately 30 cm, 40 cm and 50 cm. As each piece is hand-blown, there will be variances in shape and diameter.

Large: 45 cm – 50 cm

Small: 30 cm – 35 cm

N.B. Please note the images shown are examples of the series. All Tim’s pieces are handmade therefore there will be slight variations in shape and colour.

Wall Platters – Artist

Glass Artist Tim McFadden hails from Baltimore City Maryland, USA, where he continues to be a leading light in the art glass scene, both locally in Baltimore and internationally, as his work is prized right around the globe.

He first became enthralled by the beauty of art glass while attending Salisbury University, Maryland in 2001. The University has been a leading light in educating Marylanders since the 1920s on the Eastern Shores of the United States.

His work is influenced by the Italian glass masters from the islands of Venice, such as Murano glass, from the island in the northern lagoon, which came to prominence in the 17th century.
Tim blends antique and ultra-modern techniques in his work to create highly sought-after contemporary pieces of glass wall art, glass sculptures, and full glass installations. He works with residential and commercial clients, interior designers and architects, looking to enhance their interior décor.

Tim set up his art glass studio in South East Baltimore in 2006, where he continues to hone the Italian techniques he learned in fine American Glass establishments such as Pilchuck Glass School and the legendary Corning Museum of Glass.

As well as perfecting existing techniques, Tim has utilised them to create highly imaginative glass artworks that have been shown in some of the leading museums and galleries,  including Baltimore’s American Visionary Art Museum and Walters Art Museum.

His work is sold internationally and continues to evolve at the cutting edge of artisanal glass.
