Hamm’s Waterworks – Fully Worked Window Pane

Words do no justice to this momentous effort by the Waterworks team of Hamm and Phil. This is a seriously impressive work of art as well as a highly functional pipe by one of the all-time greats. This Windowpane Recycler, the first made in full color and 1/2 in this series, is as much a work of perseverance as it is art and engineering. The duo labored for 3 long weeks, but at the end, this glorious piece and its match emerged! Tons of off-axis encalmos adorn the sections of this piece, which really brings out the complimentary nature of the white and CFL reactive violet used in the piece. Hamm’s signature flat prep was quite the feat to achieve with this prep, yet sharp angles and swooping lines abound. This piece features an 18mm female CFL reactive Violet joint. It was an absolute honor to be the first to showcase this piece at Bottles Up and the 8th annual DFO!
