Stained Glass Round Robin

Robins have always felt like small messengers of warmth, especially in the colder months, and that sense of gentle presence is what inspired this piece. I love the way their bright chest and soft round shape translate into stained glass, catching the light in a way that feels both cheerful and comforting. When I cut the glass for each robin, I choose pieces with tiny variations and textures that remind me of feathers and winter sunlight. The wing is my favourite part to make. When the glass is held up to the light, it glows with a warm, welcoming tone, and that is what made me want to create a robin that could sit on a Christmas tree or in a window all year round. Each one is crafted using the Tiffany foiled glass method, a slow and mindful process that lets every curve and colour come together with care. The finished robin feels like a small companion for the home, carrying a little brightness wherever it hangs.

This item is glass and therefore breakable. Please handle with care and secure the item to a fixed point. All edges have been ground to remove sharpness. Consider how you display the glass and that it is in a safe location away from wagging dog tails or small hands! Lead solder has been used but this is very low risk. However, I always wash my hands after handling to reduce the risk to zero.
