The popularity of the extruded cane has led to some wonderful experimentation using the reveal options provided by the nature of the cane. Laying these canes sideways gives you a series of layers to dig down into and expose.<\/p>\n

This particular vessel created by Germany’s\u00a0Vera Kleist Thom<\/a>\u00a0has these canes laid out in a weave pattern, but the shaving down of the outer layers gives it a kind of worn stone appearance. So, do we have woven stone? Intriguing. The combination makes for a beautiful, calm visual texture. The colors follow this calm theme by being primarily neutral, but there are a few rich reds and brilliant, ocean blues that accent the weave.<\/p>\n

Give yourself a treat and look at the other vessels and jewelry she has created using this technique on her Flickr page<\/a>. Just beautiful, contemporary pieces.<\/p>\n

Carving out and revealing layers is nothing new for Vera, and right now, you can get some of her amazing cut-in bead necklaces and loose beads that we featured here in November of 2013 from her Etsy shop<\/a>.<\/p>\n
