Lyla is a 17" tall stained glass botanical halo featuring hand-selected driftwood, layered blue glass leaves, and delicate pale violet floral details. Built on a circular metal frame, the composition blends stained glass, wood, wire, and rope into an airy sculptural piece with an organic, weathered feel.

The glass elements are individually cut, shaped, foiled, and soldered by hand, then arranged to follow the line of the branch and frame. Soft blue and lavender tones from the vintage Spectrum Corsica glass catch the light beautifully, while the organic, hand-selected wood adds warmth, texture, and contrast.

I made Lyla thinking about flow and direction - how not everything grows in a straight line, but it still finds its way. The curve of the branch, the movement of the leaves, and the open shape all lean into that feeling.

Lyla is designed to hang on a wall as a mixed media statement piece and can also be displayed in front of a window for added glow. Its asymmetrical form gives it a more sculptural presence than a traditional wreath, making it easy to style as a standalone accent or as part of a collected wall display.

Crafted using the traditional copper foil (Tiffany) stained glass technique, where each piece of glass is cut, ground, wrapped in copper foil, and soldered together by hand. Finished and polished for maximum happy.

Care for your botanical halo:

• Indoor display is best - this fancy little sculpture prefers life away from the elements.
• Wires may shift a bit in transit and can be gently bent back into place if needed.
• This piece is made with lead-free solder, but I still wouldn't lick it.
• Glass is breakable, but these pieces are stronger than they look. A little care goes a long way.
• This piece includes naturally aged driftwood and natural rope, chosen for their raw texture and character. To keep them looking lovely, avoid oils, stains, waxes, and spray polishes, which can darken or alter the finish.
• Need a little refresh? Use a microfibre cloth to buff solder lines and remove fingerprints.
