About Cassiopeia Dealbh

Is dealbh gloine í Cassiopeia atá déanta as gloine athchúrsáilte agus gloine dramhaíola tionsclaíoch. Murach sin, chríochnódh an t-ábhar seo i líonadh talún, ach ina áit sin, leáitear agus athchruthaítear é ina fhoirm nua. Is gloine stiúideo é gach píosa a shéidtear leis an mbéal agus a mhúnlaítear de láimh. Léiríonn na dromchlaí garbha orgánacha aeistéitic agus solas na Lochlainne. Tá gach cruinneachán gloine soilsithe go héadrom, agus léann na dromchlaí atá cosúil le hoighear ina chéile ina suiteán a chuireann tírdhreach i gcuimhne. Tomhaiseann an dealbh 150 tríd 50 tríd 30 ceintiméadar. Is é an aidhm ná léiriú fileata a dhéanamh ar an gcodarsnacht idir ábhar athchúrsáilte agus ábhar luachmhar.
