Laser Glass Starfish
6” Diameter Hand cast dichroic glass and crystal starfish.
Each one of Laser Glass Art’s Inner Glow Collection shells is comprised of 45% leaded crystal. They are individually hand-cast from actual seashells and contain a specialized, dichroic coating which gives them their unique inner glow. Dichroic glass is manufactured by evaporating extremely thin layers of metallic oxides onto glass in a carefully controlled vacuum. The artistic combination of natural shapes and optical coatings characterize their unique products. Dichroic glass is very light reactive, therefore the intensity of the starfish’s color varies depending on its surroundings.
