Duffy's Nightwatch

Summer fireplace screen (glass 90cm x 60cm). Three sheets of low iron glass set into a walnut log with wrought iron work.

The Duffy, the Eagle Owl and the other owls were based on photos taken at the Hawk Conservancy Trust, Hampshire. This was engraved for a charity exhibition at the Trust.

In order to meet Health and Safety standards the sheets were toughened after being engraved, by being passed through a furnace at a temperature of over 700C for several minutes

Low iron glass made by Pilkington. (SOLD)
