The display stand is made from hollow hand-pulled tubing made of Experimental Cocoa and Star White from NS. The top rest includes a hidden rubber O-ring used as a buffer between the glass marble and the glass stand, as suggested by Mike Close of Baron Molds. The O-ring prevents unnecessary damage to either piece of artwork, and Mike created a tool for me that would leave a perfect indent for the O-ring to sit. Thanks Mike!

I've posted pictures of the stand before, but I finally made the matching marbles. Now available at eyecandyarts.com!
