Folksy :: Buy "3D Stained Glass Dragonfly "

Shared by RavensStainedGlass in the Glass Crafts


Product Description:

Here is my latest 3D stained glass Dragonfly piece, this time featuring Dragonflies made with a gorgeous green blue glass. The two Dragonflies appear to be having a bit of a rest on a patch of Bull Rushes standing in a little pool of bubbling water. The pool of water is made using a combination of blue stained glass and glass pebbles and the heads of the rushes are mounted on silvered wire which allows for a little movement.

Made using the Tiffany method each piece is individually hand cut and shaped, copper foil is applied to the edges, the initial soldering is done and the piece is soldered into sections. Then comes the wet bit as all these sections are washed, dried and polished. Next the complete piece is soldered together into the design you see, before a last wash to make sure it is clean.

The piece measures approximately 26cm from top to bottom, the base is about 10cm by 6cm and the wingspan of the two Dragonflies is about 10cm.
