This Judaic artwork is currently for sale. The lettering says "Chai," the Hebrew word for Life, and the background is an abstract Star of David. This artwork would make an excellent gift for a Jewish wedding, a Bar Mitzvah or a Bat Mitzvah. The colors are fairly accurate in this photo, except for the glass in the letters, which is a white glass with pink and turquoise swirls. There is no wood frame on this piece, but the heavy zinc came around the outside assures adequate strength and longevity to this unique piece of Judaica. The Zinc has been mitered at the corners to maximize the aesthetic look of an artwork without a wood frame. All metallic parts have been darkened to a charcoal brown with a chemical patina. The size of this artwork is 15-3/4" wide and 17-1/4" high.

This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I have been making stained glass for 50 years, since I took it up as a hobby at the age of eleven. I have been a full-time stained glass artist since 1975. I've won numerous awards for both my design and my craftsmanship.
I have completed commissions throughout the U.S. and Canada, and shipped my ready-made artworks as far as Dublin, Ireland. I also teach my unique methodology for making precision stained glass in a 43-hour set of DVDs, and I have sold hundreds of these sets in 15 countries so far.
As a visual artist, I invite you to view my images and compare the design and craftsmanship for yourself. Whether you are considering the purchase of an already-made stained glass artwork or commissioning new custom stained or beveled glass, I am confident that I can address both your desires and needs.
