Details:

A series of unique wintry scenes, the Gnomescape Lantern is a wonderfully warm and whimsical addition to your holiday decor. Glowing warmly with a pillar candle, the lantern can be viewed from any side for a unique design.

Measuring approximately 6×6″ by 11″ in height, this fused glass lantern is a sweet size to bring the mischief of gnomes into your home. Easily display this lantern as a centrepiece, or on an end table with a pillar or LED candle. The lantern can also be displayed on the front steps to welcome your winter guests.

This design is also available in a variety of other formats, including the Gnomescape Stand Up and Gnomescape Curved Winterscene, as well as the Gnomescape Plate, and the larger Gnomescape Centrepiece Bowl.

How’s It Made?

Handcrafted from art glass, we create the Gnomescape Lantern using multiple steps. First, we cut and polish the glass to the appropriate size. Using glass powders, we create a layer of snow, then cut glass for the gnome homes, and use glass frits for trees. We use powder for the gnome hats, glass stringers for the beards, and place the gnome noses to complete the persona. Finally, we add white glass frits as gently falling snow.

We kiln fire the glass to melt the powders and design elements into the background glass. The colour in this artwork is the glass itself. This means you won’t ever have to worry about the colour fading or washing off. During the firing, we anneal the glass. Because of this, the strength and durability of the glass is increased, so you know it will last for many years.
