The intent was always to create 2 flowers of glass on a carved wood arrangement of “stems and grass” that evoke the sense of a heart. It took about 2 1/2 months (maybe 40 or 50 hours) to carve the sculpture. About 90 minutes to make the flowers. These were made at a furnace in a hot shop. I rented the time and instruction.
