DescriptionThis chandelier is part of Chihuly's sculptural exploration of sea forms which are rendered by writhing, sinuous, tentacle-like shapes which seem to coil and slither around themselves. The 257 intricate parts of this sculpture came together as a cohesive whole, demonstrating his mastery of form and design.On View
