This rose and dagger piece is inspired by old school tattoo flash. A mixture of glass textures, limited bold colour palette and crisp black lines gives high contrast and a classic traditional look. Measures 7 1/2” x 13 1/2”
Each piece of glass is cut by hand, any flanges removed with a glass grinder. Each individual piece of glass is then wrapped in copper foil, then soldered together with 60/40 solder. This panel is bordered with lead came for added stability and finished with a black chain for hanging. After cleaning and the solder beads darkened with patina, it is waxed and buffed to a high shine.
Each stained glass item is handmade, and therefor each piece is unique. Art glass has imperfection and “seeds”, which add to the beauty and light play so loved in stained glass. Please handle with care and keep out of reach of children.
