Full description

This fused glass candle holder has been created using the 'optic' technique. Dozens of thin glass rods in transparent acid green and soft steel blue have been cut to size and laid out onto a clear glass base, and the optic technique applied, which gives the striking 'bubble' effect and a subtle colour shift to the glass rods in the clear bubble areas. The technique requires time, patience and a very steady hand. The glass elements are fused together in the kiln, and then the resulting blank is fired a second time over a steel former, to give the finished shape.

The candle holder is 6cm high and 11cm across at its widest point and the base will fit a 5cm tea light. Shown here with a battery tea light (not included). Can also be used as a pretty decorative piece in its own right. Display to best effect on a white surface, as a patterned or coloured surface would show through the clear glass and diminish the effect.

Safety note - please do not leave real tea lights or candles unattended or within reach of children or pets.
