An innovative glass-painting technique
Each piece is made on a 6 mm extra-clear glass with polished edges, back-painted with ceramic powder pigments and fired at high temperature in a kiln. Available standard diameters: 60 cm / 23.6", 80 cm / 31.5", 100 cm / 39.4".
Hanging method: Custom-made brass hardware. The upper edge of the glass rests gently against the wall, while the upper part of the brass fitting secures the piece and prevents it from tilting forward. The lower part of the glass remains approximately 4 cm away from the wall, creating a subtle sense of floating. A white wall is strongly recommended, as it enhances the luminosity and depth of the glaze colors. For darker walls, a white backing can be applied behind the painted areas, leaving the rest of the glass transparent.
Shipping: Extensive experience with worldwide door-to-door shipping, using wooden crates and professional shock-absorbing materials.
Hello,
I'm Meirav Sher, an Israeli artist and mother of three daughters.

After years of working with glazes through media such as oil paintings and watercolor, there was one special moment that led me toward glass. I was holding my baby girl, while she was asleep, when beams of light entered the room through a painted glass mobile. In that exquisite moment I understood I had to learn how to work with glass.
Several years later, I found myself developing a distinctive glass painting technique, one that has since become part of fine projects worldwide, including high-end hotels, prestigious office buildings, and art collections.
I have been featured in several exhibitions on Saatchi Art's online gallery, and in 2014, I was recognized as Artist of the Day.
The hanging concept was inspired by that fleeting moment at sunset when the sun seems to kiss the sea. I also find an associative connection between my work and jewelry, which is why I like to think of them as wall pendants.
