This clock is made by stacking strips of different coloured glass 8 to 10 layers high and tack fusing them together in a kiln. When the layers of glass are fused (stuck) together and cooled, the bar is then cut into different shapes on a tile saw. The chunks of glass shapes are then weighed and a calculation is made as to how big the size of glass will likely flow to when it is melted. A dam to contain the glass is constructed in a kiln in this size. The glass chunks are returned to the kiln and placed inside the dam in a random pattern and fired to a very high temperature so that the glass will naturally flow into unique patterns so no two pieces of glass art using this method will ever turn out the same. The piece is then coldworked by hand, (finished by grinding off any rough or sharp  edges and polishing the piece), finally  installing the clock mechanism. This beautiful clock is presented on a 15cm X 8cm x 3cm oak stand (included) and requires 1 x AA battery (supplied). The clock measures approx 22.5cm high (23.5 cm high when mounted in stand) and 24cm wide.

I have called this piece “Forest Sunlight” as it reminds me of how the sun and the sky filter through the trees on our early morning walks with our dog.

The clock comes with an attractive hardwood stand so that it can be displayed on any flat surface. It will look great in your kitchen, on your bedroom table, or anywhere else you choose.
