Cherry Blossom Stained Glass Roundel. "Nature's Apothecary" Collection.
Cherry blossom flower, hand painted traditional stained glass roundel. This piece forms part of the "Nature's Apothecary" collection celebrating the healing powers of native Irish plants and trees.
The glass used in this piece is my all time favourite, antique gold pink. The fabulous pink colour is achieved by adding gold pellets to the glass in its molten state. The term “antique” in stained glass means that it is mouthblown, a very specialised art form in its own right. I save all the off cuts from my larger commissions to use in these small pieces of collectable glass art. Nothing goes to waste.

the yellow area in the centre of this piece is achieved using silver stain which was introduced early in the 14th century and is what gives stained glass its name
