Description
Here is my attempt to recreate in glass one of nature's most beautiful spiders, the Argiope Aurantia, or Black & Yellow Garden spider. She measures about 3" long, 2" wide, & 1" tall, & is designed to either hang by the attached silk-like thread or to stand on its own. The finishing touch that makes these sculptures so life-like is the matte finish, achieved by acid-etching the completed figurine. This gives the legs & pedipalps a soft translucency, just like their counterparts in nature. By default I use a length of thread of about 15" long, but I'm happy to make it shorter or longer if you have a specific display spot in mind - just include a note with your purchase. As each is piece is one of a kind, your spider may vary slightly from the one pictured. Visit www.andrenigoglass.square.site to see more glass spider variations.
