Moraea Tulbaghensis (Peacock Iris)

This project was a true labor of love. It started with a friend posting a photo of this beautiful flower, the Moraea Tulbagensis, or Peacock Iris and said something like “you should do this in glass…” Well, challenge accepted! I started with just clear sheet glass (96 COE) and used glass powders and enamels to create my version of the flower.

Here is a link to a lovely photo I used as inspiration, and more info on the flower is available at the website:
