Description
This cast glass sculpture has a sweet smile emerging out of an array of prisms. It makes little rainbows in the sunlight from certain angles. I first sculpted a clay head, made a special sand mold of it, ladled molten glass into the mold & put it in an annealer for 4 days to cool. Once cold, I ground & polished the prismatic array of crystal like facets around the sides using lapidary wheels & a wet diamond belt sander. It is a nice, substantial solid piece of glass that looks like a big quartz crystal with a benevolent face emerging from it. 4.75 inches tall by 4.25 inches wide by 3 inches deep. Made of clear glass. I love keeping pieces like this in a windowsill for the beautiful things it does with the light. It's pretty fun to move around & see what the best angle is to make the brightest rainbow. Prism Head Cast Glass Face Sculpture, The Rainbow Maker, Optical Art
