Some of Kelsey's accolades include (but are not limited to) creating one of the largest cameo glass carvings standing at over six-feet-tall in 1994. In 1996 she collaborated with fellow Pilgrim glass blower Keith Adkins to create a large glass eagle which was gifted to Bill Clinton and now resides in the Clinton Library. Kelsey is known for trying the boundaries of cameo glass and challenged herself working with multiple layers. Her creation, "Visions of Heaven" which consists of nine-layers, sold for $100,000 in 2011.

Good estate condition.
