Realistic Glass Berry Sculptures In A Glass Pastry Shell
This small lead crystal tart shell looks at first glance like a real pie crust. You'll have to touch it to be sure. It is the perfect size to use as a display dish for up to 20 pieces of your glass berry sculpture collection. This glass pie shell is 5 inches (about 13cm) in diameter including the scalloped edges, and about 3/4 inch (19mm) high. The opening is about 4" (10cm) wide at the top. It is darker around the upper edges and paler on the bottom, where the heat would not have browned it as much. It is signed and dated on the bottom. Your order will be carefully gift packaged with biodegradable plant fiber batting inside 100% recycled paper gift boxes with stretch bows. You may create your own combination of berries to fill the tart shell. The final price will vary according to the number and types of berries you choose. The tart shell itself is priced at $300. Most of the pictured combinations including the pie shell would be priced at around $1,400.00 to $1,500.00. I create the lifelike coloring details by mixing unique glass colors, by controlled heating and cooling, or by adding powdered glass that is permanently melted into the surface of each glass berry. Any "stems" are made of copper wire which is embedded into the glass. CHOKING HAZARD: These tiny treasures are so realistic that you must store them where they can't be accidentally mistaken for real food, especially by children! They will last as heirlooms for many generations to come.

About Me:
I have been working with glass for about thirty years in total, and have made my living as a glass sculptor and jewelry designer for the last fifteen years.
About My Work:
My current work focuses on lifelike fruits and berries which I make from glass in the flame of a torch. I sell the glass berries as sculpture as single pieces or in customized groupings, and I also incorporate them into unique jewelry pieces, often custom-designed for individual clients.
The jewelry designs can range from very simple pendants and earrings to complex statement pieces. Take a look at my Custom and Quick Order listings to get some ideas of what can be done. I would love to design a custom piece just for you.
My Business:
My work is also available for purchase around the United States at major glass and art galleries, and my pieces have found homes in private collections all over the world. I also do business under the name GlassBerries.

For Raspberry Necklace With Glass Berry And Leaf Cluster, Adjustable Length.5.0I know it will be perfect! From my two other necklaces, I can hardly wait for my twin to open the box and see her delight of the raspberry necklace! I already know she has received it...and I've asked her to wait until I can be there. Ms. Johnson's necklace is not only beautiful, you know she is such an amazing artist with her creative details!

For Realistic Glass Blackberry Necklace5.0Re: Elizabeth Johnson, Working with Elizabeth was a pleasure and timely, reflected in my ratings. But her work is what I am considering here, for the most part. My wife, on receiving her Blueberry Necklace from me, asked me weather it will stain her blouse when she puts in on. But truly- this necklace is just beautiful!!! Mitch Schmidt

For Glass Cherries4.8I ordered glass cherries from Elizabeth, and she crafted, shipped them, and they arrived within seven days of ordering. Stunning and increadibly realistic. Keep in mind that the photographs come out quite a bit brighter and lighter. The tones of the actual pieces are softer and really beautiful. Definitely recommended!
