Tributary Platter Series
Platters in the Tributary series are available in sizes 12” to 24” with custom requests up to 28”
Nicholson van Altena Glass uses colored glass powder, frit and rod to create the illusion of texture and movement in each of the Tributary Platters.
The water in each platter can be made in different colors, and the Waterways color application can be made in multiple shades, intensities, and hues.
Land features in the platters can be sand, granite or both.
Each platter has an asymmetrical shape which cannot be repeated. The Tributary Platters come with a glass foot and will sit flat, in a stand, or wall mounted in a custom made steel bracket.
