Honey bee depicted in a textured fused glass panel surrounded by colors of amber, purple and green stained glass. Thin copper frame with solder lines finished with copper patina as well.
Measures 7 1/4 inches tall by wide, 19.5 cm square.
Multiple firings in a glass kiln were needed to achieve the textured honey bee with subtle little purple flowers. The colorful pieces I used for the border were also fired in the kiln to make them smooth and to match the appearance of the center. All wrapped with copper foil then soldered together in a traditional stained glass technique. Next framed with thin copper with the solder lines chemically treated with copper patina. Small amount of copper chain included for hanging.
