Description
This framed picture features a floral bouquet of spring brights of red, orange, yellow and pink – give a gift of flowers that last forever!
In these small bouquets, inspired by a few years working as a florist, a background of shades of green is laid down with frit and enamels, and then this is decorated with hand placed individual pieces of frit (glass granules), carefully selected for size and shape. A piece of shaped clear glass is added to represent the vase. These squares are then fired to a textured fuse in one my specialist, digitally controlled glass fusing kilns and annealed (cooled in a controlled way) for strength and durability. It then goes back into the kiln for a second time to attach the smaller piece to the base glass, which is usually sublty shaded with background colour to add a bit of extra depth of dimension.
The frame is made from black ‘polcore’ to bring out the bright florals. The frame can either free-standing or wall hung. The frame aperture is approx 13cm square and 2.5cm deep (5″ x 1″)
Please note that I have a small number of alternative frames in white, pine or oak stain – get in touch if you’d prefer it to be changed.
All pieces are unique and made by hand in the studio in Derbyshire.
