Black & White Bunny Illusion Glass
Whimsy in Painted Contrast
This luminous Illusion Glass work captures the gentle charm of a black-and-white bunny, poised amid soft blossoms and leaves in a striking monochrome palette with subtle hints of color peeking through. Hand-painted with specialized European enamel glass paints that fuse permanently to the surface upon firing, the rabbit’s expressive face, long ears, and delicate fur glow with rich depth and lifelike subtlety—crisp blacks, pure whites, and faint undertones of blue and pink creating an illusion of quiet personality suspended in glass.
The circular composition is framed in traditional lead came construction, accented by hand-twisted copper wirework that forms graceful, flowing tendrils and supports. Crystal and glass bead accents in soft blues and clear tones add gentle sparkle and rhythmic balance and a tiny silver tone carrot dangles. The piece is suspended from a custom copper hanging element and rests above a customized bowl base, evoking a sense of playful lightness and timeless innocence.
Designed with a deliberate dual nature, it reveals its full magic in two lights: radiant and translucent when natural daylight shines through from behind, unveiling vibrant depth and illusion; painterly and richly atmospheric when viewed in ambient indoor light or shade, appearing as a glowing, hand-painted composition suspended in time.
Materials : Hand-cut art glass, lead came and solder, European enamel glass paints, hand-twisted copper wire, crystal and glass beads (soft blue and clear tones), customized base.
Dimensions : Approximately 4” diameter (glass panel), total height including hanging and base ~16–18”.
Price : $375
