It was! It's one of my all-time-favorite pieces of art--just stunning.
It's on display now at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art....they bought
the whole collection that came through there about 4 years ago as a
traveling exhibit and put it on permanent display. If you have the
chance to see it in person, you'll really enjoy it. Here's the Museum's
page about the Chihuly exhibit: http://www.okcmoa.com/p/8397/Default.aspx
