Geisha Part 2

Gold leaf was added to her kimono

Back View of my red and gold geisha showing her golden obi.

I was playing with pinks that day!

A garden geisha, she's holding a Swarovski flower charm.

She stands just under 2 inches. Made on a HotHead torch with soft glass (Moretti & Vetrofond)

Hair decorations feature goldstone while I placed a tiny bit of gold leaf onto her obi.

A gift I made for my cousin's wife. She wanted pink and white and this is what flowed onto the mandrel. I don't know what she's watching but she must like it, she's clapping.

View from the side. You can't see it in the photo, but there's goldstone in the trim on her sleeves, belt and obi. I pulled it very thin which gives it more of a subtle shimmer, just catches your eye as the light hits it.

Rei means "grace" in Japanese, one of the meanings anyway. I wanted her to look as if she was walking with part of her silky kimono trailing behind.

I pictured her sleeve whooshing back more than usual with her quick little steps, feet kicking back at the hem.

I really like the obi on this geisha. Somewhat different hairstyle than I normally make also.
