Houston Llew Spiritiles #17 Betroth (retired) Glass on Copper art blocks:
$450.00


Betroth - Spiritile #17Quote: \"My soul finds no staircase to heaven but through earth\'s loveliness.\" - Michelangelo

  • 8.5 x 5.5 x 2\"
  • glass enamel on copper, formed around a wood core

Every Spiritile is made painstakingly by hand in Houston Llew\'s studio in Atlanta, Georgia. The glass is applied to one side of the metal using stencils and relying on precise layering with hand sifters. The piece is only fired once.After firing, a pin is rolled over the enameled metal to form intentional crazing marks in the glass.Although it goes against the medium\'s traditional teachings, Houston says this technique creates increasedlight refraction, particularly in the transparent glass.

Spiritiles can be hung on the wall (they look especially impactful in groups), displayed freestanding, and even withstand high humidity, direct sun and covered outdoor environments (we recommend taking them inside during cold winter weather).

This Spititile is retired and currently selling for $700UPDATE: It was noted that there is a small flaw in one back corner of the tile.It is not a hole, it is a rough edge. I did not even realize it was there until I took photos with my phone after being asked about it. Please see photos. Added 3 more photos and lowered the price by $100
