With its three dimensional arachnid silently resting atop its web awaiting the approach of the unwary, the 15″ Spider shade elicits strong reactions from viewers. For this shade, we used a transparent sheet glass created at our studio (we no longer have a glass furnace). The lightly filamented glass perfectly captures the feel of a spider’s web. Created in 2003 and now in a private collection, the shade is shown on the Mushroom base (16″ tall).
