Custom Buckle
Your image on glass in your choice of colors. Please email me first through the Custom Work contact page at the top, and tell me about your idea or image, and any color preferences you have. I will email you back and answer your questions, and you can then send me your photo or artwork.
Note: Please contact me first with ideas before ordering. I will send a mock-up, you may order once that is approved.
Image should be a larger file, around 3x3 and 300 dpi, ideally high-contrast, (but I can do this in Photoshop) and not copyrighted by anyone other than you. I will email you a mock-up with your image/color ideas and ordering instructions. Once a design is worked out and agreed upon, you can go ahead and order it here, noting the design + colors in the comments field (ie "bird platter, brown on ivory, red border"). I can get started as soon as I've received payment. Custom work typically takes about 2-4 weeks after the order is placed, and is not returnable.
Buckles are printed with fine enamels onto colorful sheet glass, then fused it in a kiln to about 1400 degrees. They are screen printed, kiln formed glass, approximately 2 1/4" x 3 3/8", and will fit up to a 1 1/2" wide belt (sold separately). They make great gifts, and come read to wrap with colorful tissue. They also make fabulous tiles!
