It's been a quite a while since we have been able to offer one of Nowak's iconic Whale's Tooth pieces.  This particular example is unique in it's very tall size (most of the Whales Teeth he has produced are in the 10-12" size range.).  It is also unique in that he has used an interesting limited palate of cool tones for the elements, in greens, blues, and lavender. The sides of the piece are accentuated by pulled cane details, and the back of the piece is overlayed with Dichroic glass to give an extra subtle sparkle and sheen when viewing the piece.  The elements within seem to have a kinetic bond that is most unique, and really makes a compelling statement.  Of the several Whales Tooth sculputual works we have been able to offer on eBay these past several years, this would have to rate as one of the finest examples.   The fabrication technique on this particular piece is also exceptional, with very clear body, and only subtle cording or interior swirling...much less so than is usual in this particular series of works.   Nowak has not been producing this particular grouping much lately, and there is no telling how long before we may be able to aquire another of these beautiful works.
