shiny dragonfly, stained glass

Description

This magnificent dragonfly has beautiful irridised glass wings which make it positively shine out as you pass it. The light catches on the clear, irridised granite glass wings and shines out pinks and greens as you look at it from different directions. The wings are complimented by the body where I have used a greeny blue water glass in keeping with the watery theme.
The dragonfly has been created using the copper foil technique and has wire running the length of the body to give it strength. Wire has also been soldered on so that the dragonfly can hang safely.

I hang dragonflies in my kitchen window and some people make their bathroom mirrors look great by hanging one there too. Where will you put yours?

The dragonfly is approximately 18cm tall and 18cm wide.

This is not a toy please do not let children play with it.

Inspiration

On one amazing day canoeing on the canal near Tiverton we were delighted to see huge amounts of dragonflies, big ones, tiny ones, dull ones and positively glowing ones. Days like that stay in your memory forever. I use dragonflies on mirrors and lamps as well as lightcatchers and they always provoke happy memories.
