Chess Board - Art Glass Mosaic
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.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer 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.

For Stained Glass Windows4.7It was great working with Michelle-I gave her an idea of what I was looking for & some key things about my husbands life which I thought could be good to reference then she came up with a fantastic design that built all these components in & even researched Arabic text to further build on his history. Excellent & beautiful completion. Also great advice on the long term maintenance of the window given we won’t be fitting it for a while. Thank you so much!

For Blazing Fall Forest5.0Project was complicated and was pulled off with perfection. I had Caron make three custom stained glass lights. They are amazing and perfect. Installed perfectly onto bases that were already made.

For Jeffrey's Glasswork5.0I had a fantastic experience working with Michelle Caron. She is professional and patient with questions. Michelle has a great combination of being able to offer advice while remaining open-minded to your ideas (even if you don't know what you're really talking about, like me, or have a tough time conveying what you mean). I would definitely work again with Michelle. She is a true artist and everything came out beyond my expectations!

For 4-Piece Clairette Fused Glass Coasters5.0The coasters I received came out wonderful! They arrived just in time, and were beautifully wrapped when I took them out of the box they were securely packaged in. The experience was a pleasure!
