Glass Mosaic Tile Art: Creating Mosaic Tables by Bill Enslen
How do you create lovely stained Glass Mosaic tables? Once you know these basic steps, your creativity can take over. If you want something truly unique in a mosaic table, forget the many common styles of round mosaic bistro tables on metal stands that look they were produced on an assembly line. Instead, try integrating a beautiful stained glass design onto the table top of a piece of real-wood furniture.
Start with an unfinished table from a local or online store that deals in unfinished furniture. If you buy online, shop around because you can oftentimes find the same products in a wide price range. Search for “unfinished furniture” and you’ll get tons of hits. The pieces that I buy are usually made of parawood, which is a hard wood from the Malaysian rubber plantations. Its density compares to birch or ash and its strength rates the same as maple.
Stain, seal, and finish the table with high-quality products. Use rags or paintbrushes to apply the stain and topcoat. If using rags, I suggest wearing plastic gloves. Check your local super center for a box of a ga-zillion of them for only a few bucks. They’re cheap, but they work. Wood furniture can also be painted for dramatic results. For example, white is a nice color for breezy, beachy decors. The protective topcoat over stain or paint can be gloss, semi-gloss, or satin, depending on your preference.
Prepare the table top to receive the stained glass by painting it with white primer. The white color helps make the stained glass look bright and beautiful when laid in-place. Although a piece of stained glass may appear opaque, it oftentimes is merely translucent and the white background of the table top helps keep the glass color bright. Draw the stained Glass Pattern directly on the painted table top.
Following the pattern, measure and cut each piece of stained glass using the appropriate tool, which depends on the piece’s shape and complexity. Grind the edges of each piece to remove all sharp edges. This ensures exposed edges on the tabletop are blunt so no one can injure themselves when dusting, wiping, cleaning, or otherwise using the tabletop. Most online stained glass stores offer decent glass grinders between $90 and $150. Sometimes the local hobby store has them for sale at half price. You don’t need the heavy-duty, industrial-strength, super-duper grinder that costs $250. The cheap $100 unit is usually just fine for the average glass crafter. If you work with stained glass and Glass Tiles, then you ought to bite the bullet and buy a Glass Grinder.
When all the stained-Glass Pieces are in-place, apply the grout. After the grout cures, apply a high-quality grout sealer to help protect the grout color from dirt and spills. After the sealer thoroughly dries, clean and buff the glass with paper towels or a clean, soft cloth.
For a nice added touch, sign the furniture piece on the bottom side of the tabletop using a permanent felt-tip pen. The result is a beautiful piece of art that serves a functional purpose in the home or office. Each piece of stained glass mosaic furniture is truly unique, even when using the same pattern because no two glass pieces can be hand-cut exactly the same.

Almost the Richest City: Bristol in the Middle Ages $55 Almost the richest city of all in the country with a harbour for a thousand ships may well be an exaggerated description of Bristol by the writer Gesta Stephani but it sums up the twelfth-century view of the city as second to London in status with an important international port, producing wealth that directly influenced the art and architecture of the city throughout the Middle Ages. Bristol, according to Sir Nikolaus Pevsner ‘shortly before 1300suddenly jumped onto the front rank of English and indeed European architecture’, with the early eastern arm of the abbey church being ‘superior to anything else built in England and indeed Europe at the same time’. The abbey church alone would have been sufficient reason for holding a conference in Bristol, but St Mary Redcliffe and the other parish churches, together with many other aspects of the city’s medieval art and archaeology, provided justification for arranging a conference in the city in July 1996. The articles in this volume were delivered as lectures during that conference. These studies explore the international trade of Bristol and its documentary and archaeological evidence, and offer a radical new interpretation for its early development. Architectural studies provide fresh insight into the links between the Elder Lady Chapel of the abbey and Wells Cathedral, a re-evaluation of the eastern arm of the abbey, setting it into a regional context and revising its international importance and prodigy status, and a new study of St Mary Redcliffe, which assesses the contribution of the Canynges family and clarifies the reconstruction of the church in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Other important articles examine the ‘Harrowing of Hell’ relief, mesericords and the Lady Chapel glass in the cathedral, the monumental effigies of Bristol and the early sixteeth-century paintings in St Mark’s hospital. Of additional interest is the first modern appraisal of the Roman mosaic from Newton St Loe, in the care of |

‘Little Fishy’ Mosaic Mirror $165 ‘Little Fishy’ Mosaic Mirror Like from the familiar nursery rhyme some one has caught a ‘fishy’ here, infact two, one at the bottom of the mirror and one at the top. Made from glass beads that resemble the scales on a fish they catch the light and reflect into the green and blue colours, pearl beads and mirror tesserae help to give them a shimmering effect. The fishy at the top looks like it’s full of life and trying to jump off the mirror! Pretty hearts made with vintage china, and a velvet bow on the bottom fish also adorn this piece of Art. All in all a highly unusual work and one that would add that special something to your room. Not suitable for a steamy bathroom! Size 43 x 30 A secure metal wire is on the back for safe hanging. |

‘Love Scottie’ Mosaic Mirror $285 ‘Love Scottie’ Mosaic Mirror A fantastic fun mirror to admire and watch the rainbow of reflections bounce off the individual glass pieces. You don’t have to love the cute little Scottie dog and his bones on this piece of art, but it probably helps! The red hearts are a bit of a give away, but dog lovers will understand this anyway. Vintage china, and buttons are also scattered throughout to add even extra interest. But look closely at Scottie’s plaid bow, pearl collar and glass heart, what a prince of a dog eh. The way the pieces of tesserae have been cut to create the doggie help to create the impression of his rufty tufty fur. You could just pick him up and take him home with you. Which is why he is loved so much and needs a good home to give him the care and attention he needs, is that you? Size 47 x 38 cm A secure metal wire on the back for safe hanging . |

Artists’ Techniques and Materials $24.95 An artist’s materials–the bold brushstrokes of a Van Gogh oil painting, the sparkling gold leaf in a Byzantine mosaic, the fragile translucence of a porcelain vase–are not just the accessories of his or her work. They are the physical embodiment of the artist’s creative vision and a reflection of the historical context in which they were used. This latest volume in the popular Guide to Imagery series discusses the materials and processes used in eight media: painting, drawing, printmaking, sculpture, mosaics, ceramics, glass, and metalwork. Within each of these categories, Antonella Fuga examines the range of materials and techniques that have developed over the centuries. For instance, in the chapter on drawing, she analyzes the use of charcoal, red chalk, and pastels, among other media. Capsule descriptions in the margins list essential information about the subject under discussion, and details of the artworks employed as examples are called out. The book concludes with a brief overview of contemporary techniques. Richly illustrated with artworks from many of the world’s important museums, this book provides art enthusiasts with new insights into the creation of many of the world’s great masterpieces. |

Carlo Scarpa: Glass of an Architect $29.87 Glass was viewed as raw material for experiment and research by the famous Venetian architect Carlo Scarpa, who felt the challenge of this vastly suggestive age-old art.The volume is the first catalogue raisonne and the entire index of the over four hundred artistic glass pieces executed by the great architect between 1927 and 1947 for the Murano glassmaking firms of Giacomo Cappellin and Paolo Venini. The works represent an important part of the early years of his activity: over three hundred pieces, often unique prototypes, they show Scarpa’s exceptional designing inventiveness and an incredible variety of typologies and decorative types, from the “lattimi” (milk-white opaque glass) to the “a incalmo” (grafted) series, from “Phoenician” decoration to other famous styles such as “tessere” (mosaic-like pieces) and “a bollicine” (tiny bubbles). Essays by Marino Barovier, Tobia Scarpa, Luciano Gemin, Gigi Scarpa, Alain Irvine, Sergio Polano, Marina Barovier and Ferruccio Franzoia retrace Scarpa’s singular artistic experience through his creations, which are outstanding in their research in materials, their synthesis of forms and early modernity. The book also provides an interesting opportunity to compare Scarpa’s activity as designer and as architect, combining curiosity, meticulousness and the urge to experiment, whether in creating small object or in measuring himself with the most demanding architectural project. |

The goal of the symposium was to present the methodology, research, and results of the project, which involved conserving one of the finest examples of monumental medieval mosaic art in Europe. The volume’s essays are divided into three parts, which cover the historical and art-historical context, conservation planning and methodology, and project implementation and maintenance. Topics addressed include the history, iconography, and visual documentation of the mosaic; the development and application of surface cleaning and protective coating techniques for the mosaic’s glass tesserae; and post-treatment monitoring and maintenance. |

Encyclopedia of Jewish American Artists (Artists of the American Mosaic Series) $85 Encyclopedia of Jewish American Artists presents over 80 19th- and 20-century Jewish American artists, ranging from the critically neglected Theresa Bernstein, Ruth Gikow, and Jennings Tofel, to the well-known Eva Hesse, Roy Lichtenstein, and Larry Rivers. The subject matter of some of these artists may surprise readers. Adolph Gottlieb designed and supervised the fabrication of a 35-foot wide, four-story high stained glass facade for a synagogue; Louise Nevelson sculpted a Holocaust memorial; and Philip Pearlstein painted a version of Moses with the Tablets of the Law early in his career. Covering painters, sculptors, printmakers, and photographers, as well as artists who engage in newer forms of visual expression such as video, conceptual, and performance art, the book is in part intended to stimulate further scholarship on these artists. When appropriate, entries reveal the influence of the Jewish American encounter on the artists’ work along with other factors such as gender and the immigrant experience. In many cases, the artists’ own words are employed to flesh out perspectives on their art as well as on their Jewish identity. To that end, the volume contains excerpts from recent interviews conducted by the author with some of the artists, including Judy Chicago, Audrey Flack, Jack Levine, and Sol LeWitt. Illustrations accompanying each artist’s entry, some in color, aid this invaluable look at Jewish American art. |
