Paved Glass Swirl in Crystals
By dlsc
Located in New York, NY
This gorgeous glass swirl has been transformed into a sparkling light show of a sculpture. This was accomplished by selecting several complementary color crystals which creates a brilliant explosion of light when a light source is near it. The crystals are from the leading crystal manufacturer in the world. Each stone is set one by one by a skilled Artisan with over 28 years experience of doing this work in NYC. This technique is called pave.In fine jewelry this is done with jem stones. This is a time consuming process because of the angles and curves that must be reached. This sculpture would be perfect in many settings. The fact that is not to heavy it can be your own rotating art show. It can be displayed on a book shelf, an entrance hall table...

Black Lacquered Glass CLC Crystals Balls Edge Trim
By dlsc
Located in New York, NY
This is a special piece. I envision this as a table center piece but it would look equally well anywhere.This black lacquered piece has primmer to secure the adherence of the lacquer to the glass. After the lacquer had dried it is top coated to protect the surface. The crystals are from the top manufacturer in the world.The color used is called Crystal Light Chrome which is simply a chrome,silver color. The interior decoration balls are Paved as is as the border. The balls are not attached. This piece is one of my favorites and I wouldn't be mad if it didn't find a home, but I think it will. What a conversation piece. At different angles of light hitting it you will see a show of dancing crystals. Move it around the house place it in different locations, coffee table shelf entrance hall table...
