Design & Inspiration Inspired by the hibiscus flower these vibrant 5 petaled glass flowers play with light & make a real statement to your garden. The unique design contains two glass parts making up the organic undulating flower & stamen. These flowers have been designed to be robust enough to showcase in your garden however they look equally as pleasing in your home. I loved the process of experimenting to create my beautiful new range of garden flowers. Please look at my other ready to ship items for different variations of colour & glass trickery or message me for commissions. Method Glass fusing is the long running art of joining, merging & shaping glass using a kiln. Every flower started off as sheet glass, then each of the 52 pieces were hand cut, assembled & journeyed through my kiln 3 times. I form the separate flower & stamen pieces then slump them into an organic flower shape over a custom mould. Just like real flowers, being handmade no two pieces are the same. Materials I use specialist art glass to construct these beautiful flowers, playing with a myriad of effects that showcase the beauty of glass. Material 1: Pink (Opalescent) Material 2: Amethyst purple (Iridised Transparent) Material 3: Marigold (Transparent) & clear glass that glint & refract the in the sun. Each flower roughly measures 23cm in diameter & is mounted on a weather resistant stake (non-rust) to securely display your flower in your garden. It is robust enough to brave the weather in your garden however I would recommend protecting it from extreme weather. Delivery Each flower is safely protected by layers of bubble wrap & padding to ensure that it reaches you without damage & is shipped via courier. A tiny amount of assembly required upon arrival to attach the flower to the stake, only fingers required! The stakes come in two different sizes; Medium: 70cm tall (shipped separately for an additional 5) Small 40cm tall Organic Fused Glass Flower Sculpture Pink & Purple Iridescent Variation
