This gorgeous little "mushroom" is today's most recognisable fungus, and it reminds me of one of my favourite childhood cartoons, of course, The Smurfs.
With its bright orange/red cap and ivory spots and stipe, this fungus is irresistibly cute...so I have made my glass Amanita muscaria in three transparent shades including classic orange-red, electric yellow and grass green.
You can purchase a single mushroom or a cluster of three mushrooms.
Each mushroom has a small stake attached so you can insert into soil/sand or small pebbles. Mushrooms are approximately 3cm tall (excluding stake).
These mushrooms have been handcrafted using Venetian and/or German glass, by a process called lampwork. The gills on the underside of the mushroom have been made with a specialised mold, and the rest of the mushroom has been made free-form. Each mushroom is slightly different for this reason.
Please note that these pieces take 5 to 8 business days to make (excluding shipping).
