I just finished this commission Sunday, took me some tries to get the balance
worked out - the dragonfly rests freely on the marble, balanced perfectly on top.

The dragonfly itself is Effetre black encased with iridescent (reduced) Double
Helix glass over the entire body, except the legs and segment-separators
of the tail. The wings are a light topaz with greenish iridescence.

The marble is a double-twist ribbon consisting of two layers of dichro - Effetre
clear with yellow/orange dichro and Effetre transparent emerald green with green dichro.
