the piece is large and would look wonderful as a centerpiece, on a large pedestal or even on the floor. The design is reminiscent of sea shells, cocoons or even alien lifeforms.

zimmermann is well known for his artistic glass objects, which have organic, natural looking structures. These natural structures are the basic idea in zimmermann's work. Ideas for his designs can be found in corals, fruits, leaves or ice. Zimmermann has developed numerous so-called "honeycomb objects", glass sculptures with either hidden or visible a (metal) honeycomb like structure. Zimmermann has received several awards, and his work is shown in many glass museums all over the world.
