Herring Gull on String by The Glass Bakery

Herring Gull (Larus argentatus)

Aside from the sound of the surf, what says "Seaside" more than a seagull? Comical as he might be, the seagull is a very intelligent bird, attentive and caring. This decorative gull is made entirely from glass - no paints, glazes or moulds. His shape was designed and hand-cut with layers of coloured crushed glass built up on the clear shape before firing the bird in a kiln over many hours. The bird comes with his own detachable driftwood perch that has been sanded on the underside for stability.


Handcrafted in Nova Scotia from glass (no paints, glazes or molds) with artisan studio-glass made in Nova Scotia.

Size Approximately 4-4.5 " for adult, 2.5-3" for chick.
