Lighthouse Suncatcher Stained Glass Picture 020

This is a stained glass suncatcher made using the Tiffany copper foil technique. One of my very own designs and I think it is quite stunning and very special. It is a 'picture' of a lighthouse beaming its light out across the sea. The white and red striped lighthouse has a little blue door and stands on a grassy headland overlooking and protecting the turquoise waters below. The picture is framed in clear glass with a pretty texture and then with a strengthening border of twisted wire. This is beautifully bright, simple and cheerful and casts lovely colours when it hangs in the light of a window. It is 15cm wide by 18cm high and hangs from a strong silvery chain which is securely attached at either side of the top. My pieces are all unique. I use different shades and textures of glass to ensure that everything I make, even when to the same pattern, is different. I designed and made this for a very simple reason. I was inspired by a phone call from my granddaughter Izzy asking if, when she comes to visit, Granddad Bob will help her build a model lighthouse for her school project. Brilliant idea and if they can make a lighthouse then so can I. Postage is Royal Mail, Tracked 24. Only charged on first piece in an order.
