Kingfisher Rainbow Panel Stained Glass Suncatcher 021

A very special design, a stained glass panel entirely handmade using the Tiffany copper foil technique. It is a 'picture' of a bright shiny turquoise and blood red coloured kingfisher / hummingbird / hovering under a rainbow of sun's rays. I designed this as a wedding anniversary present for my husband and made it in A3 size as a leaded window in my kitchen. This version is Tiffany copper foiled not leaded and is a smaller version at 5.5 x 7.5 inches. It is designed to hang as a suncatcher in the window. This is the 20th I have made and I absolutely love it. When it has the sun behind it it casts all its rainbow colours beautifully. I have 'framed' it for strength with twisted wire. It hangs from a strong silvery chain which is attached to either side of the top by soldered rings. I would recommend that this, to be safe needs to be hung from a proper hook rather than suction hooks as it is quite heavy. It comprises 36 pieces of individually cut glass in all colours of the rainbow and I've used a big variety of different textures to give it lots of movement. I am very pleased indeed with this piece which looks quite stunning hanging in the window. This item is absolutely unique. I never make two pieces exactly the same, I always use slightly different shades and textures of glass. I designed a larger version of this as a leaded window for a wedding anniversary present for my husband. It is fitted into my internal kitchen window and I see it every time I walk through the room which pleases me very much. Postage is set for Royal Mail Tracked 24.
