Chess Board - Art Glass Mosaic

$495

This chess board features glass mosaic on a wood base and framed in wood. I designed it to accompany a set of chess pieces that represented the ancient struggle between the roman legions and the barbarian tribes. The double circle of red and gold around the check pattern represents the Roman chess pieces. The green triskell in each of the corners, an ancient symbol of the Celts, represents the tribal chess pieces. The glass has a rough, almost stone like quality which gave the piece a more rustic feel. The board measures approximately 26" x 26" with 1 3/4" squares. It is framed in wood.

My name is Michelle Caron and I am the owner and artist at Caron Art Glass -now located in Salem, Oregon. I have been working with glass for over 25 years creating fused glass, stained glass and glass mosaic art work. 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. There is something for everyone - even those hard-to-buy-for friends and family.
