Oaks in Green – Freestanding Glass Art
"A song to the oak, the brave old oak, who hath ruled in the greenwood long,
Here's health and renown to his broad green crown, and his fifty arms so strong."
- Henry Fothergill Chorley
I have always loved oak trees, in this glass panel I have used glass carving techniques to create the shape and textures of the leaves and the acorns. A transparent green glass is used and because the glass is carved the piece has a simple elegance yet it still retains depth and lightplay within the design.
This piece is freestanding and works well in a range of postions. It is mounted onto an oak base which has been oiled to bring out the full beauty of the wood grain.
Glass panel size is approx: 170 x 305mm
Oak base size is approx: 170 x 92mm
Overall height approx: 323mm
This glass panel comes in a gift box and the base is wrapped in acid free tissue paper. All packaged well for delivery.
