Lighthouse Suncatcher Stained Glass Picture 017

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.
