tossed by the waves and mermaid fantasies

The Mermaid Tail Flat Starfish is created with an aquamarine color pattern on the bottom that gets magnified from the thick optical layer of clear glass on the top.

This is a flat starfish. It will rest on a flat surface with no legs bent over the side. 

It is about 5" in diameter.

The Tide Pool Green Starfish is created with three layers of color on the bottom of the starfish, and a thick layer of clear glass added to the top, making the starfish optical and appear almost wet. It looks as though it was just pulled from the tide pool.

When the glass is hot, John lets the molten glass fall over the edge of a metal table, capturing the moment when the starfish is creeping away, just like it clings to rocks in the ocean.

It measures about 5" in diameter.

The Starburst Starfish is created with an organic blue and white color pattern on the bottom that gets magnified from the thick optical layer of clear glass on the top.

When the glass is hot, John lets the molten glass fall over the edge of a metal table, capturing the moment when the starfish is creeping away, just like it clings to rocks in the ocean.

It is about 5" in diameter.
