This life-size sculpture of a yellow buttercup flower and leaf, resting in a small glass bottle is made from beeswax and paraffin wax.
The sculpture incorporates tinned copper wire, silk fabric, tissue paper, cotton thread, artists' pigments, acrylic paint and acrylic varnish to give added detail and authenticity and is mounted on a wooden base with traditional glass dome.
The sculpture is 13cm in height, 5cm wide and 4cm in depth.
Part of the ‘Collector’ Series of numbered works, influenced by museum collections, it is typical of Annette Marie Townsend's intricate and exquisite craftsmanship and her expertise in the tradition of Victorian wax sculpture.
Please note that the piece should be displayed out of direct sunlight and away from direct sources of heat.

These whiskey timbers stand just 75mm high and are a classic example of beautiful design combining with functionality.
Ed Burke has been a master glassblower for over 30 years. He takes enjoyment in the technicallity of blowing glass. His tectonic series is creating glass that has a geometric view and is juxtapose to the natural properties of glass which is usually softer and rounder.
The piece is One of a kind piece, although we are able to create a piece of a similar influence.

Amelia’s work is about taking tiny close-up details of the natural world, such as Lavander and reinterpreting them using hot glass to produce glass art. This piece is carefully constructed using hotglass murrine which Amelia has pulled in her hot glass studio then cutting them before building them up to create a large tile of murrine. The movement, colours and cellular structure of Lavander is the inspiration of this piece.
This is a One-of-a-kind piece.

One of a series of sculptural works pairing antique flashed glass with weathered oak stumps retrieved from a Welsh hillside. The fern, the birch and the bo all have strong spiritual meanings, and these pieces celebrate life and its vibrancy and the cyclicality of nature. The glass is mouth-blown in France and Germany and has been acid-etched many times, in order to create the patterns and textures. The glass has also been gilded, using silver and copper leaf applied by hand. The oak is as found on the hillside but cleaned back.
