The hoop consists of a wire ring within which are 13 coloured glass nuggets, each hand wrapped in wire and then soldered within a handmade wire &#8216;web&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Three glass feathers of varying sizes hang from below the hoop.\u00a0 The feathers are handmade using the traditional Tiffany copper foil method &#8211; each piece of glass is hand cut, wrapped in copperfoil and soldered. The solder is then polished to a high shine. They are made using genuine stained glass, so the colours will never fade. The design is kinetic, so the dangling feathers gently sway with movement. Each feather will be slightly different because no pattern is used.<\/p>\n<p>All elements of the design are handmade, so no two pieces are identical.\u00a0 As each piece is individually crafted, it may vary slightly in appearance from the photographs shown. Glass feather colours may also vary slightly but they will be all blues, purples and turquoises and a mixture of smooth and textured glass.<\/p>\n<p>Approx. hanging size with ribbon 55&#215;15 cm. Without ribbon &#8211; 35x15cm. <\/p>\n<p>Comes gift boxed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recommended for indoor use only.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>NOTE: Please note, this window hanging does not come with a window sucker because it\u2019s too heavy. It will need to be hung from the ribbon provided on a nail or hook in the window frame. This way it will stay 100% safe on your window, for you to enjoy for years to come! It can also be hung from a picture hook on a wall.<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A dreamy piece of glass art for your home &#8211; a stained glass dreamcatcher in hues of heavenly blue, purple and turquoise, to hang in your window or on a wall.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2389,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/stainedglassworks.co.uk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/2377"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/stainedglassworks.co.uk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/stainedglassworks.co.uk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stainedglassworks.co.uk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2377"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/stainedglassworks.co.uk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2389"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/stainedglassworks.co.uk\/shop\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2377"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
