Fishing Float Chandelier
This chandelier was custom designed to meet the client's need for a ocean-themed chandelier. It consists of a driftwood mosaic canopy that mimics the oval shape of the client's beveled glass table. Embedded in the canopy are ten MR16 LED down lights. Hanging from the canopy are nine authentic Japanese fishing floats, each with a vintage style LED bulb inside. The MR16 bulbs and the vintage LED bulbs are on separate circuits for separate dimming. In addition, there are 35 other smaller blown glass balls on 14 stainless steel cables spaced about the fixture. The entire chandelier hangs from four chains hooked to the ceiling.

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.

Apr 26, 2021My cat knocked over and broke a lamp that had two glass lampshades. The lampshades are unique and I searched for months for a replacement. I stumbled upon David's glass art and was so happy I found him! David's communication is exceptional. I really enjoyed the process from start to finish. I'm thrilled with how my lampshades turned out. They look better than the originals.

Apr 23, 2017We 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!

Jun 11, 2022I am so happy with the chandelier David has made for me! He has been so helpful and professional. I had initially thought I wanted to design all of it myself, but quickly realized how complicated that would be, so without hesitation David came us with an AMAZING design and kept me updated every step of the way. The chandelier is so pretty and way more affordable than I thought it would be! I highly recommend him.

Mar 21, 2019I cannot say enough good things about David and the project he completed for us. He is AMAZING...talented, professional, a great communicator and willing to tackle tough projects. He restored a beautiful glass base for an antique globe that has been in my family from the late 1800's. He had to make several attempts and the results are fabulous. I cannot recommend him highly enough. THANK YOU DAVID!!!!
