Aurora Studio - Painted tropical fish uses etched flash glass and silver stain as well.
Flash glass is clear on one side and colored on one side.
The colored glass can be etched away leaving clear spaces undefined by leadlines. Silver stain produces a yellow tint when fired. The combination of glass painting, red and blue flash glass and silver stain gave the artisan a virtually complete pallet to produce tropical fish in realistic color and detail. This deceptively simple scallop shell design of leaded beveled glass makes a striking centerpiece for a leaded glass entryway. This scene makes use of some painting on the fish and boat.
