    I found this art glass flower that is signed D J S. At first I thought it was a Murano flower, but the design wasn't quite right. So I went off searching for the elusive DJS. In searching for the artist, I kept rolling past a website named Glass DJ's Undefined Art. I came back to it out of frustration, because I couldn't find the signature elsewhere. It's clear to me now that the artist is David J Shanfeld, so if you run across this signature that's who it is.

    I love the way it changes colour in different light. That would be a keeper for me. Good find.

    You are funny. In some of his designs, he loops the stem around a wine bottle. Thank you.

    Yes. I agree. I tried it with various lights to bring out the various colors and was surprised when this came up. Thank you.

    His website is kind of mystical and dreamy in the "About." I hope his work grows in popularity, as this one catches your eye in size, color, and shape. As always, I appreciate your comments.

    KSW. My house is slowly filling up with art glass, because I don't sell. Yesterday, I parted with a bunch of pieces of lesser love by donating them back to make room for my new pretties. I will keep this one, as it is quite spectacular.

    Thank you. I have had it for several days on the table where I do my research and have become quite fond of it, as I looked for the artist. At first, I wasn't sure of the blue stem, but then saw in it the artist's eye as a continuance of the flower's middle color rather than a literal representation. It's really quite big at 4 1/2 inches diameter so it makes quite a statement.

    This means a lot coming from you, another art glass lover. His work is being mistaken for Murano pieces on a couple of sites. It has that thick luscious quality. Thank you.
