Fairy With Butterfly - Celtic Knotwork Etched Glass Decorative Art Tabletop Display
The kindness of the natural and supernatural worlds come together in this Fantasy inspired decorative etched glass art. . Created on a 6" diameter of 1/4" thick glass a woodland fairy calls to her butterfly friend inviting it to rest upon her outreached finger. The edge is sandblasted to give a simple border to this lens into such hidden places. . The sandblasted artwork is designed for both sides of the glass to create an added depth to the piece. Carving, frosting, and shaded techniques are all incorporated to give the quality and dimension in the etching. . The design has a Celtic theme using a band of knotwork etched into the front side and merging with lotus petals toward her feet. The fairy is then on the backside showing the depth of the two surface planes. As you move around the object, you can feel the motion within the 3d object. . The glass sits in a slotted maplewood base. The base helps add that natural touch and bring the composition together. It is then complimentary to any rooms interior decor however it is displayed - on a mantle or coffee table or even in a cabinet case lighted to show off the quality of art glass.

Mar 12, 2017The Pineapple etched glass was exactly what I wanted for my sofa table doors! From to start to finish all my questions were answered and I couldn't ask for an easier process and delivery . The finished product looks beautiful and I have received many compliments on the glass along with my husband's craftsmanship and design of the sofa table.

Apr 11, 2016Extremely pleased with the ordering, initial design and working with/communicating with Brian. He even moved the completion up so I could give my gift for a 60th B-day gift. The mirror etching was awesome and exceeded my expectations completely. UPS apparently dropped the crate shattering some cracks but Brian is on top of it in filing a claim and already replacement glass to start the work again. Definitely pleased in all aspects!
