A handcrafted glass bottle sculpture is built to last a lifetime — but like any fine art piece, a little care goes a long way. Here's how to keep your Essenar sculpture looking its best for years to come.
Dusting and Cleaning
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth to gently dust your sculpture. For deeper cleaning, a slightly damp cloth works well — just avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the glass or damage any painted details.
Where to Display It
Glass sculptures look stunning in natural or accent lighting. Avoid placing them in direct sunlight for extended periods, as UV exposure can affect any colored elements over time. A shelf, mantle, or bar cart with a spotlight or LED base creates a dramatic display effect.
Handling Your Sculpture
Always handle your sculpture with both hands, supporting the base. The sculpted elements — wings, fins, petals — are strong but should be treated with the same care you'd give any fine art piece.
Moving and Storage
If you need to move or store your sculpture, wrap it in soft cloth or bubble wrap and place it in a sturdy box with padding on all sides. Never stack anything on top of it.
With proper care, your Essenar glass sculpture will remain a stunning centerpiece and conversation piece for decades.
