Decorative Glass Shelves / Floating Glass Shelves

January 2nd, 2010 Posted in shelves | No Comments »

This unique dripping edge is only possible in glass. Glass is by definition a super cooled liquid and I designed and built a kiln just to do this affect. I make custom furniture, custom shelves and custom bar tops using this dripped edge. I custom bend 3/4″ glass. Glass as a media is virtually untapped. I feel there is so much more to be done in glass we can push it so much farther. ” Everything is yet to be done and not to be done over again” PICASSO

Decorative glass shelves make a very strong design statement. They are to add to the art work they hold or display not over power them. Ligting is very important element and need to be addressed rigt from the start. I design and fabricate the custom hardware needed to install my contempoaray glass shelves. The key to designing Floating Glass shelves is the lack of hardware. You need  brackets to hold the decorative glass shelves but they must not be a focal point.

Saint Edward High School Chapel Windows

saint edward chapel windows

saint edward chapel exterior

We designed these windows for the new Saint Edward High School (Lakewood, Ohio) chapel in late 2008. We created windows mounted with 1000 rainbow like glass drip pieces. Each of the individual drips radiate yellow green light in reflected light. In translucent light, the color shifts through the yellow to orange to red and to lavendar spectrum depending upon where you view it from.

The windows were created by laminating a diachloric film between the glass and the drip which allows the light to pass through and create a rainbow of colors. The final product, a non tradional stained glass window is a unique glass blowing technique that demonstrates the master craftsmanship of Marc Konys.

custom floating glass shelves

Floating Glass Shelf

Custom glass shelves   and  custom hardware makes a real statement. I wanted to give a real floating feel to the shelves so I designed a simple bracket  that the glass shelf would just set on.  The glass shelf doesn’t  go all the way from post to post it stops short.

Custom Glass Shelves

The  3/4″  thick custom glass shelves are very elegant . I like designing custom hardware ” its the detail” .
