If you want a small Christmas tree...
... here's your opportunity to have a tree that will fit on your desk at work, around the base of your main Christmas Tree, or maybe on your window ledge.
We make these trees from 4 pieces of hand-cut glass - two for the tree and two for the trunk. The coloured glass is laid out as the base, and clear glass is laid on top, with a wire staple sandwiched between the two layes at the foot of the trunk. Fully fusing the piece causes the pieces to melt together to become a single piece of glass, with the wire firmly embedded in the trunk. The wooden base is drilled and the completed tree is glued in place.
These trees come in a variety of colour combinations and are 7 to 8 cm in height and are mounted on a real wood base.
If you'd like something that has a little more sparkle built in, then try these beauties. They are very similar to the trees above, but are made from Dichroic glass (glass coated with a metallic film). They are slightly shorter as they don't have a trunk.

Due to the way in which glass moves when heated, and because all pieces are hand cut, each of our pieces are unique.
