Free-standing stained-glass

"I developed a method of making stained-glass free-standing in order to be able to show it in galleries and make its purchasable, so as to make giving it as a gift much easier. Using solid aluminium bar as their base, my free-standing pieces have been designed to stand safely on any flat surface, most effectively on a window-sill or in any other back-lit location, whilst still being portable."
