“Cortez Blanco” (White Roble) - Handmade Collectible Glass Art Figure

 
Beloved in Latin America, the Cortez Blanco is a noteworthy tree of the Tebabuia genus. Also known as Guayacan, its flowers are a uniform bright yellow, not much different to Margarita Llort’s interpretation in glass. In this piece we see the Cortez Blanco sunburst and in full bloom, providing an uncannily similar impression to that of the real tree. 

 
Central America's flora and fauna are the focus of Margarita Llort’s VitroNATURA collection, highlighting through intense colors and mystifying textures the features of the region's vivid wildlife. Margarita Llort’s pieces elegantly capture the often forgotten natural landscape of the unexpectedly diverse Central American country.
 

Help protect El Salvador´s biodiversity. When you purchase a piece from the VitroNATURA collection 25% of the proceeds go to SalvaNATURA Fundacion Ecologica, a not-for-profit organization devoted to preserving El Salvador´s natural habitat and animal diversity. Additionally, Vitrales de El Salvador recycles and upcycles whenever possible, implementing a “Zero Waste” approach to production. All of the left-over glass from large projects is creatively used in new items. Every purchase is kind to our planet!
