John Reyntiens Meteorite Pieces

Meteorites, ‘small pieces of matter from celestial space’ inspired these elemental pieces whose textured surfaces retain the memory of glass in its molten state.

 

Having made 2000 Glass beads for the Versace 1999 Haute Couture collection, I got excited about melting glass in the kiln to create texture, turning it golden and then silvering or gilding it with precious metals to make it self reflecting.

From this my on-going meteorite series was born.

Miniature Meteorite Wall Hanging Artworks

 

Each one is hand crafted and unique. They are kiln-formed and hand gilded with either 24 carrot gold leaf or white gold precious metals. Each one is fitted with a hook fixing on the back and is presented in a beautiful box.
