Australian Blown Glass Sculpture by Nicole Ayliffe
This striking blown glass sculpture by Australian artist Nicole Ayliffe features a delicate Bodhi leaf, suspended within layers of clear glass and intricately detailed with engraved botanical imagery.
The fine veins of the leaf subtly catch and reflect the light, revealing the organic detail held within the glass form. Ayliffe’s work explores the relationship between nature, light and transparency — creating pieces that feel both refined and quietly contemplative.
Beautifully suited to contemporary interiors, art collectors and design-led spaces, this sculptural object makes a sophisticated statement on a console, shelf or gallery plinth.
Each piece is individually handcrafted, making it a unique example of contemporary Australian glass art.
