bowie bolt | alladin sane

This large stained glass lightning bolt is cut with a handheld cutter, shaped with a grinder, and soldered using the copper foiling technique. The bolt is finished in black patina and is suspended with strong black cord. The signature colours are carefully chosen to emulate the Bowie aesthetic. Both colours are transparent and create refracted shapes when the light shines through the glass.

Quality of design/finish is extremely important and as a result a great deal of time and attention has gone into each piece.

》PLEASE NOTE

Each piece will vary slightly due to the unique production of the glass sheets they are cut from. It is also common for the sheets to have texture and bubbles. These are not imperfections but part of the glass.

Always wash hands after handling as solder contains small amount of lead. Avoid hanging in nursery/child's room and keep away from children.

When hanging your piece avoid using suction cups, instead suspend your work from a secure fixture to avoid your piece from falling.

Stained glass naturally begins to oxidise over time. To keep your piece looking it's best gently wipe with a micro fibre cloth with a small amount of liquid carnauba wax. Avoid using standard abrasive glass cleaners as this will cause damage to the glass.
