I made this as a gift to a friend. I printed a photo of the family directly onto glass, printed the text onto glass, and used these elements in a back-lit mosaic tabletop. The legs are fashioned from old Bois d'Arc fence posts with chromed steel bracing.

Fused glass work is my primary focus, but I also work in leaded stained glass, found object sculpture, large abstract watercolors, and acrylic painting. I use glass to make custom lighting fixtures and chandeliers. Most of my material is scrap recycled from local leaded glass businesses. Musical themes predominate, but I am open to other imagery. I am able to incorporate text and personal photographs into my custom work.
In addition to glass, I make custom or reproduction lead castings for use with leaded glass panels.
David was very professional and communicated easily and often. He was able to translate my sophomoric drawings into a perfect replacement for the broken glass lamp shades that had been destroyed in a recent earthquake. His charges were reasonable. His attention to detail, provision of progress images and reports, and desire to satisfy were gratifying and all products arrived intact and as expected. I would certainly request his services again and recommend him and CustomMade to my friends and relatives.
Our chandelier exceeded our expectations! It was absolutely beautiful and definitely unque. It is displayed in our redeveloped sanctuary and everyone is so amazed as well as pleased. David was truly a God sent. He paid attention to detail and handcrafted every inch of it.. He kept us informed of every step in the progress. His delivery timing was delayed due to us and not him. It was well worth the wait. Thank you David for providing the focal point in our sanctuary at Eden International Ministries in Lumberton, NC.
We were so impressed with the first slumped glass shade, we ordered another in a different color. It's as beautiful as the first one. Thanks David!
Not only is the piece he made for us amazing but he was truly great to work with! Communication and customer service were great. I’d highly recommend him to others.
great work. David was very good with communication and ideas for the project. Would definitely work with him again
