Sidelight Windows - Manoa Banana Leaves
This pair of windows were installed on either side of a plantation style sliding glass door. Textured architectural glass was used so that the beautiful view of Manoa valley was not obscured. The design features arching banana leaves and each side has a unique design though both side are anchored with a vertical band centered on a pair of amethyst roundels. The combination of geometric and organic shapes creates a pleasing balance. The instructions from the client were very open- a design that made sense to the surroundings of the house. I chose banana leaves because their broad shape would keep the design open and their gentle curves reflected the laid back ambiance of the house and its owners. Though I didn't know it at the time of submitting the design, the owners of the house had owned a farm when they first came to Hawaii and their logo incorporated banana leaves. This made the design all the more personal to them.
Dimensions: each window is 36" x 24"

Great service

I create custom stained glass windows and fused glass art work with unique designs and handcrafted excellence. My passion for glass germinated in the cathedrals of France, developed roots in Hawai`i and is now branching out in Oregon. Commissioning artwork is very rewarding. The result is a piece of art to which you have a uniquely personal connection. Your involvement in the process can range from a general idea of the design or purpose of the piece to an ongoing conversation as we develop a design that expresses your voice. Your satisfaction is always my primary goal. Finding the perfect gift is time well spent when you give a quality handmade item that brings joy to the person who receives it. In addition to commission work, I create ready-to-purchase boutique items each of which is unique. From fused glass sculptures that bring new energy into a space, fused glass table ware for that special occasion, to personal items for the office and library, or one of a kind jewelry, you'll find your next piece to gift or treasure at Caron Art Glass.
