Overview
Garry Nash is one of the early pioneers of studio glassmaking practise in New Zealand and remains at the forefront of the movement. This is a good example of a series of works known as 'Reef Vases', so named because of their obvious references (through colour choice and decoration) to the tropical undersea environments associated with reefs.
