Custom Original Design Stained Glass Boat Construction & Dimensions

This lovely glass boat sculpture is an original design stained glass boat sculpture that stands 15 inches tall, and 11 inches long by 3.5 inches wide.  I use the finest, rare specialty glass to customize the boat.  The original custom boat was made from a special baroque glass for two of the sails, and streaky white stained glass for the stay sail and for the hull and rudder, then teak glass for the deck.  The yacht has rope coils and ties on the cabin and attached to the front mast, a tiny handmade anchor and helm, all twisted and soldered out of copper wire.

The photographs that are attached to this custom listing show the beautiful colours of the hull, deck, sails and cabin.  The featured picture of the yacht shows the unique design of the boat.

Custom Details

To craft this glass boat sculpture, I use the tiffany or copper foil method of stained glass, and three dimensional techniques. I hand cut the glass for this boat from white baroque, rare aqua blue and royal blue stained glass for the sails, royal blue stained glass for the deck and opaque white glass for the cabins, deck fittings and hull. I built the details out of copper wire hand coated with silver solder, and then bent and soldered each piece of wire into rails, helm, anchor, winch.  By special request, the boat has a royal blue rudder and hull.

Personalize

Always 81’  is lettered on the hull.  When you purchase, you can request any wording that will fit along the hull.

Altogether, this lovely boat is a work of art, handcrafted specially to fit the decor of the owners’ daughter, an amazing gift for her.  Something similar would be a special gift for the person you know that loves and admires sailing, sailboats, or the sailing lifestyle.
