 Floral
stained glass is, in my opinion, often trite in its simplicity and lack
of originality. Whenever I do flowers in stained glass, I try to do
them justice. This artwork depicting morning glories (currently for
sale) is a classy example of floral stained glass.
The central design is constructed with a very small lead
came (3/32"), not previously available to me. The border design is
leaded with 5/32" lead came. All of the lead came and solder
has been treated with a patina that gives a charcoal gray color to the
came.
The morning glories are cut from a pink and
purple
multi-colored glass. The central background glass is an opaque
peach colored glass, not yellowish as it appears here. The bevels in
the border (which look white here) are actually made from a soft peach
colored glass (very rare).
This floral artwork is framed in a custom
made walnut
frame to which a medium stain has been applied. It comes ready to hang,
as do all of my artworks that are for sale.
Although this floral stained glass artwork is fairly
small (21 1/2" wide by 25 1/2" high), it's pattern is quite intricate
and, like all of my artworks, one-of-a-kind.
The price of this captivating artwork was $2600.00, but I gave it as a wedding present in 2022.
All in all, it would make a great gift for
someone special... or a special treat for yourself, and I think you
deserve it!
