Glitz & Grandeur

@glitzandgrandeur / glitzandgrandeur.tumblr.com

Glass is amazing! It’s a suspended liquid that moves and flows. It changes with light and the lack of light! It's smooth and glossy, it has texture and depth. It's cool, it's hot, it melts, but is strong. It sparkles. It shines. It even casts rainbows. Oh glass, how I love you! I'm Susan, a stained glass artisan. I also work with fused glass, and make handcrafted jewelry. This, my blog, it's where I post pics, ramble on, and share things that catch my eye, turn me on, spark a reaction, or that I just plain like. You can find pictures of projects in progress here, instead of just the finished pieces on Etsy. I have an little shop on Etsy called Glitz & Grandeur. You can connect directly to Etsy, or directly to my shop by clicking the appropriate 'Etsy' or 'Glitz & Grandeur' link below. You can also find my page on Facebook under "Artists" as Glitz & Grandeur, or click the Facebook icon below. The same goes for my Pinterest boards. Thanks for visiting!

The Abyss Table is a stunning coffee table that mimics the depths of the ocean with stacked layers of wood and glass. Made by London-based furniture design company Duffy London, the limited-edition piece comes with the hefty price tag of £5,800 (nearly $10,000).

"Water" panels, work in progress - Both panels have now been soldered, front and back.  Cut the zinc came to frame the panels.  Next, the frame will be soldered, then the hangers and chain attached.  These panels are not going to be patinaed so just a good cleaning/polish and they'll be completed.

Wave Fused Glass Insert stained glass panel by Glitz & Grandeur

This is the other fused glass piece that was being worked on in earlier posts.  It's framed all around by glass globs, textured glass and bevels.  I like the framing of this one slightly better than the one posted prior, but it's a bit more tedious to foil, layout and solder around all those glass globs.

One of the fused glass insert panels, completed.  This one is outlined in a beautiful dark purple/blue/green/white stipple glass with a column of glass and glass globs on each side.  Two different types and shades of blue, ripple textured glass has been used, along with a teal spectrum.  Textured clears outline everything and dual rows of bevels line the top and bottom.
