Magpie Castle Glass Piwakawaka Fantail
This beautiful glass Piwakawaka fantail is a stunning piece of art!
This life size pīwakawaka is made from semi opaque white and green/brown marbled glass perched on a little branch. The marbling of the glass varies a little in each bird but stays in the green - brown range.
Artisan glass is handcut and soldered together using the classic "Tiffany" stained glass technique.
Size: approx 12 x 12 cm
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Can be hung indoors or outdoors. When selecting a place to hang be mindful of wind gusts that the area could be exposed to and hard objects such as walls/windows that the item could swing into and cause damage to (or damage to itself). If hanging from a car mirror make sure the string is short enough so that it doesn't bang into the windscreen.
Keep away from water to avoid moisture seeping in between the glass.
To clean the glass simply spray a small amount of glass cleaner onto a lint free cloth and clean (do not spray directly onto glass to avoid excess seeping in)
Since this is a natural object some slight change in colour may occur over time
