Caithness Glass Unlimited Editions Safari Large Elephant Sandcast

Handmade in Scotland these beautiful Caithness Glass sandcasts come boxed with a certificate included. The vibrant colours of orange and red contrast against the baby elephant following in the setting sun.

The sandcasts are created using a sand base that has shapes pressed into it and then powdered glass colours dusted over the surface, using templates to keep the colours in certain areas of the design. Once the design is finished a metal frame is placed over the design and glass poured in. It is then put into the kiln to cool for 12 hours. Sunset colours of orange and red are dusted onto the sky, then the dense opaque orange of the sun is added and finally a fine layer of black defines the elephants' silhouette and the tree.
