Achilles

A story

Achille the kingfisher patiently scans the surface of the water, on the lookout for his next catch. He is the jewel of our rivers; perched on his branch, he sways with the morning breeze.

He measures 20 cm x 8 cm from the top of his head to the tip of his tail, and the base measures 29 cm long.

A piece of fine craftsmanship

Handcrafted in my Périgord studio, this stained glass piece is fashioned using the Tiffany technique, from translucent and opalescent glass chosen for its richness of texture and light. Each element is assembled with copper, tin, and lead, according to traditional artisanal know-how. The wooden base is also made in my studio.

The glass may have fine streaks or small air bubbles: these are natural characteristics of its manufacture, which contribute to its charm.
