Rubbing Salt In Your Eyes

I'm not talking about saline solution for your contacts... I'm talking about some Salt pipes that'll have you rubbing your eyes in disbelief! The ones I'm talking of are a mix of line work and Salt's signature style monsters. Salt does line work? I know right? As far as I know the work was all done by Salt himself. The wigwags and line work are encased by monsters and really stand out from the rest of the work we've seen from Salt. Perhaps inspired by the Eric Ross colab he did. I can't decide on a favorite. But the red one, which has windows cut into from the monster to reveal the line work below, is clearly the most unique. I find these slides to parallel what's going on in glassblowing. Seems like every glassblower is at least trying once to mimic Salt's style, which is taking over the previous trend of line work. These are "missing links" and a must have for the collector! Kulture also picked up a number of other Salt slides too, and a Salt ash catcher. This man must be constantly working, because there always seems to be a steady flow of new work going around!
