Garden Inspired Fused Glass Sculpture Featuring Handmade Glass - Midnight Iris
The fused glass sculpturette Midnight Iris is part of my Jardinage collection inspired by flowers from my garden. It features handmade glass in velvety colors with hand painted details to add structure to the flow of the glass. I wrote the quote from Voltaire, “Il faut cultiver notre jardin.” (We must nurture our garden) along the stem line in liquid gold and fired it in the kiln for permanence. The glass is seated in a tiger wood base. Enjoy the delights of the garden year-round with the affirmation that a healthy garden is the result of devotion.
Approximate dimensions: 6” x 2” x 1.5”

Meet the Maker
Michelle Caron
Caron Art Glass
I create custom stained glass windows and fused glass art work with unique designs and handcrafted excellence. My passion for glass germinated in the cathedrals of France, developed roots in Hawai`i and is now branching out in Oregon. Commissioning artwork is very rewarding. The result is a piece of art to which you have a uniquely personal connection. Your involvement in the process can range from a general idea of the design or purpose of the piece to an ongoing conversation as we develop a design that expresses your voice. Your satisfaction is always my primary goal. Finding the perfect gift is time well spent when you give a quality handmade item that brings joy to the person who receives it. In addition to commission work, I create ready-to-purchase boutique items each of which is unique. From fused glass sculptures that bring new energy into a space, fused glass table ware for that special occasion, to personal items for the office and library, or one of a kind jewelry, you'll find your next piece to gift or treasure at Caron Art Glass.

Nov 27, 2017Michelle was a pleasure to work with and worked very hard to make my vision a reality--while making suggestions along the way. She was always available, responsive, and accountable. The lamp exceeded my expectations and I wouldn't hesitate to work with Michelle again.

Aug 9, 2020Project was complicated and was pulled off with perfection. I had Caron make three custom stained glass lights. They are amazing and perfect. Installed perfectly onto bases that were already made.

Dec 23, 2023From initial contact to delivery, Michelle has been nothing but a consummate professional. The piece she made is not only gorgeous, but exactly what I was hoping for when I first posted my request. I could not possibly be more happy with the work she has done, the speed she made the piece with, and her communication throughout the entire process, both in explaining the options available, and turning my idea into a treasured glass artwork.
