The Apple Blossom Bowl

The extended cold snap and late spring held back the growth of our apple trees this year. But two weeks ago, the ‘Howgate Wonder’ burst into colour, and work began to capture the essence of the pale pink blossom.

In time, we look forward to harvesting a healthy crop of apples from the orchard opposite the glassworks.

Like many flowers the apple blossom has a rich history, high in antioxidants, producing a sweet tea that offers a clear complexion, better digestion, and stress relief. And in some cultures, the blossoms signify wisdom, joy, fertility and youthfulness.

Every year, the blossoms arrival is a sign of hope and of wonderful things to come.

Made in two sizes, this bowl is a transparent pale pink glass with a pink lip wrap.

Made to order, hand blown, hand engraved glass, signed dated and numbered.
