4" 'Sugar Skull' Suncatcher - Tangerine

Sale price$28.00

Otherwise known as ‘calaveras,’ these Sugar Skulls are a fixture in Día de los Muertos celebrations all over Latin America and the world. These beautiful calavera suncatchers celebrate our dearly departed in the joyous visual language of flowers and color. Intricate and full of fine flourishes, these Tangerine suncatchers have depth, dimension, and dazzle. 

As a suncatcher or window ornament these are striking. 4” in diameter. Each is slightly different due to the handmade process.

We recommend using fishing line or another clear filament thread to hang your window decoration to best suit your desired look.

Jenni Gonze

All of the suncatchers we make pass through Jenni’s skilled and capable hands. Whether a suncatcher available to all – or a custom suncatcher for your particular purposes – Jenni moves seamlessly from art to carve, translating designs into carefully-carved graphite stamps, each of which leaves behind its impression on extra-hot glass out of our furnaces.

Gonze is a trained glass artist: she studied under the illustrious Kelsey Murphy (designer of our WV Day 2022 piece, ‘Cabin in the Woods’), learning cameo carving and cold finishing techniques for giving finished wares an extra layer – or ten! – of artistry. She has worked with Blenko for nearly a decade, during which she has continuously innovated and evolved our suncatcher offerings from a few line ‘catchers to the wide variety you see now.

“There are so many supporters and collectors out there who are just waiting in line to get a hold off a piece that celebrates West Virginias heritage”
