All etching of glass is done entirely by the artist.
Beveled glass elements are cut and beveled by specialist craftsmen for the artist, then assembled by the artist.

"8 Birds of Prey, Sconces"
Hand-etched, hand-blown glass in brass frames
approx. 14" tall
1980's
In Seattle, glass was hand-blown into cylinders, rolled in deep amber-brown glass, blown larger, cut and then flattened into sheets by specialty artisans.
I then etched the birds of prey (8 in all), removing most of the colored glass, leaving only the borders and birds.
The brass sconce frames were made in my studio by the German artisan, Falk Kwasnievski
