Great Glass Gifts

Placitas, NM

If you're looking for glass gifts that are special and spiritual, visit http://www.greatglassgifts.com. All items are handmade by two New Mexico-based artists who have been in the trade for almost 30 years. While the selection is not as large as the other two websites, Great Glass Gifts offers some beautiful and unique gift ideas. Intricate glass mandalas dress up any window, and unique pyramid lamps splash changing colors through the room. This website also offers beautiful handcrafted glass boxes and collector-quality kaleidoscopes filled with glass jewels. Kaleidoscopes, as well as the larger lamps and mandalas, start at $200, but you can expect to pay between $65 and $100 for most of the other fabulous glass gifts available from these artists.

The specialty of the Great Glass Gifts website is water prisms. Fill these prisms with water and watch the light refract and send rainbows throughout the room. For those who know something about Feng Shui and Chakra Colors, these prisms can be a method for bringing positive energy into the home. But no matter what you believe, these prisms can be a source of beauty and light, appropriate for any sunny window and perfect for a unique and special gift. These prisms combine clear and colored glass to create a variety of different color schemes. Choose from a variety of shapes and colors to find the perfect prism.
