Hand Blown Glass Sea Turtle with 24K Gold

NEVER a RESERVE PRICE on ANY of our auctions. We think this keeps everything simple and you, the buyer, can bid with confidence.

New Original Design by Kevin Prochaska, Glass artist at Disneyland for more than 10 years.

This wonderful sea creature warms the artist’s heart by the struggle of survival it faces. Since often less than 1 percent of sea turtle hatchlings make it successfully to the ocean after they emerge from their shells, it truly is a wonder that we can still celebrate this species. The artist presents his version of this amazing animal in this original offering from Prochaska Galleries. The sculpture is made entirely by hand of Borosilicate Crystal and colored using only pure gold. This piece measures approximately 5” tall, including the coral base and is approximately 4 inches long. All coral used in Prochaska Galleries sculptures is artificial and shows off the colors in the glass beautifully. Kevin has made certain that the coral is exact in every detail including its weight of nearly one half pound. The brilliant rainbow of colors is created when pure gold is applied to the glass while it is still molten. Signed by the artist. An attractive information card trimmed in gold foil is included as well. To learn more about the artist and his work, which has appeared in numerous feature length films, and even at the Whitehouse, visit prochaskagalleries.com.  Retails at specialty shops for $149.00.

Safe Shipping Guarantee

Safe arrival and your complete satisfaction are always guaranteed. Extraordinary care is taken to insure the safe arrival of your blown glass figurine.  We use a three-step process that has resulted in the safe shipment of thousands of Prochaska Galleries sculptures over the past 30 years.

Step 1: As it is being made, the glass blower takes special care to reinforce all stress points to help protect against shock damage.  Additionally all natural stresses are removed from the glass by a high temperature tempering process called annealing. 

Step 2: After the figurine is removed from our annealing oven it is thoroughly inspected by the artist who makes certain that all internal stresses have been removed from the glass and that its surfaces have been properly vitrified.

Step 3: Finally, it’s time for careful packaging in not one, but two cartons. Both are filled with shock absorption materials.   The sculpture itself is firmly held in place inside the internal carton so as to prevent movement.  Loose fill between the two cartons guards against shock and the external box protects against obvious damage.

Our Guarantee: If for any reason you are unhappy with the quality of any piece of art from Prochaska Galleries, simply return it for a full refund or replacement, customer's choice. (We do ask that we be notified within 7 days of receipt of your order if you are not 100% satisfied). We accept PayPal, personal checks and money orders and ship via UPS/insured under normal circumstances.
