Chihuly glass ceilings, from Las Vegas to Seattle

 

"Persian Ceiling", lit from above the glass creations rest on a flat glass pane, it's an immersive experience in colour and shape at the Chihuly Garden and Glass in Seattle.

A decade ago I was enthralled by the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas. It is a visual extravaganza and the hand blown glass installation in the lobby is completely exquisite. I took it all in but I must admit did not focus on the artist! So imagine my surprise when I connected the dots during our visit to this gem in Seattle, the Chihuly Garden and Glass. How I love that life continues to surprise and delight me.

The exquisite real flowers and artist Dale Chihuly's hand blown glass installation of over 2000 flowers called Fiori di Como. His interpretation of Italian flowers in the Spring.
