This beautiful pendant is made with a cluster of enameled cala lillies overlayed on a pretty light lavendar art glass base. Underneath the calla lillies are peeks if a pink dichroic glass. The floral image is fused into the glass and will not wear, peel or rub off.

Each piece is lovingly crafted in our home studio. The glass is cut and multiple layers are added before heating to 1500 degrees in a glass-fusing kiln. Once fully fused, the pieces are annealed (cooled) for 6 to 8 hours. It is then ground to a final shape and “fire-polished”.

Through experimentation and "accidents," we have developed techniques that involve layering dichroic with other art glass, achieving vibrant colors, textures, depth and originality. The play of color as the pieces move in the light is remarkable. Each piece is one-of-a-kind and impossible to duplicate.
