 Wow...
Tinkerbell is one popular lady! I get lots of emails about
this artwork... so read my lips: This
artwork is not for sale! I designed and created
this freehanging piece of Disney animation years ago as a wedding
present for my ex-wife's sister and brother-in-law.
So, if you're interested in commissioning
Tinkerbelle in stained glass, you should know that this artwork would
sell for about $3400.00 today. Other Tink designs in other price ranges
would be possible, too..
This artwork measures 30
inches in diameter, and hangs without a wooden frame. I use a special
zinc came around the edge of all my frameless pieces to give the
stained glass artwork the rigidity that it needs to stand the test of
time. Sometimes, steel support bars are also soldered to the back side
of the edge of frameless pieces for additional support, although that
was not necessary here.
A steel-blue flash glass was used
here for the background, allowing the stars to be sandblasted into it
(at Tinkerbell's feet). The round pieces are all faceted glass "jewels"
in various colors. As I researched and designed this stained glass
artwork, I came to the realization that Tinkerbell is almost exactly
like Wilma Flintstone, only Tink has wings and shoes!
