This mushroom is wavy, shiny, green, and a little speckled. When lit, this lamp is a soft and calm blue-green light.
The design
The cap was created using two pieces of circular glass – clear and a soft iridescent green. On the edges, I used a variety of cool-toned pieces of glass that I melted in flat. The cap is softly domed and organic in shape. The iridescent side is on the top of this mushroom.
The stem
The stem is a recycled bottle that I cut, ground and polished, sandblasted, then annealed in my kiln for added durability. Finally, I added a light glaze for easy cleaning (damp cloth) and to reduce fingerprints on the sandblasted surface.
The light
This lamp comes with a compact LED nightlight-sized lamp that fits inside of the stem.
If you prefer to place this mushroom in a garden space or have a lamp of your own that you would prefer to use, you can select the ‘no light’ option to receive the mushroom only.
Additional details
This mushroom is one piece. The top and stem have been bonded with clear silicone. To learn more about the creation of glass mushrooms, please see this blog post – behind the handmade scenes.
