Full description
I'm a bit of a sucker for the Nativity...it always makes me well-up whenever I hear small children singing "Away in a Manger" or "Little Donkey". So I couldn't resist making a little Russian Doll stained glass version of it for hanging in a window to cheer up those dreary December days.
Predominantly made from recycled bottles and glasses which have been made into flat glass in my kiln. The detail is then painted on and kiln-fired again, and finally the glass is leaded together using the traditional stained glass technique.
Kiln-flattened recycled glass has a beautiful clarity and depth of colour not seen in modern machine-produced glasses. I started experimenting with it out of necessity - I needed an exact match for a church window repair I was doing, but liked the results so much I now regularly use it in my work. You can see more of the process at my blog
Each figure is supplied with a small loop and thread for hanging.
Joseph is 180mm tall and Mary is 160mm tall.
(I hate to state the obvious, but please bear in mind this product is made with glass and lead and therefore should not be handled by small children)
