Featured Glass Art
A prismatic stained glass artwork designed to transform ordinary sunlight into shifting color and atmosphere.
This large stained glass panel is created using the copper foil technique. This piece changes throughout the day as sunlight moves across your space. The sky is made of swirling purples, iridescent clears, and ambers, and the mountains are beautiful varying shades of greens, with a small blue stream at the bottom of the mountains.
This piece measures approximately 9” wide and 13” tall and hangs from a sturdy black chain.
For homes that deserve more joy.
I ship to the USA within 1-3 business days using USPS First Class Mail.

This round stained glass suncatcher is created using the copper foil technique. The sky is made of incredible opaque pink whispy glass, with a stunning orange sun made from mouth-blown Fremont Antique Glass. The barreling wave has bits of iridescent highlights. This piece changes throughout the day as sunlight moves across your space.
This piece measures 7” in diameter and hangs from a sturdy black suede cord and self-tightening knots. I recommend hanging this directly on a nail in the frame of your window—it’s too heavy for a suction cup.

For those who prefer their Halloween decor with a little more fang.
This handmade stained glass bat is part of my once-a-year Halloween collection, created in my Pacific Grove studio from hand-cut glass, copper foil, and solder.
Hang it in a sunny window or on the wall, the glass changes throughout the day as the sunlight moves, giving this little creature a whole new personality from morning to afternoon.
Each bat is individually handmade, so no two are exactly alike. Last photo shows the glass I’ll use for the pre-ordered bats.
Approximately 9” wide and 2.25” tall.
Seasonal note: I make these in a limited batch specifically for Halloween. Once this year’s bats are gone, they’ll return to their cave until next spooky season.
A little spooky. A little colorful. And considerably more charming than a plastic bat.
Pre-order pick up option: I have 5 bats ready-made now. If you’re local to Monterey you can pick up on Thursday 10/1/26 at the Boss Babes event at the Vague Collection from 4:00-7:00 pm. If you aren’t local and need it shipped, I’ll send your bat no later than 10/9/26. The last photo shows the glass I’ll be using for these bats to be shipped.
A little ghost for your window, because apparently your home needed a tiny spectral resident.
These handmade stained glass ghosts are part of my once-a-year Halloween collection. Each one is individually made in my Pacific Grove studio using hand-cut glass, permanent glass paint, copper foil, and solder.
Hang one, or a family of them, in a sunny window and watch the light bring it to life.
Available in two sizes, so you can choose your ghost based on how much haunting your window requires.
SMALL GHOST
Approximately 3” tall x 2.5” wide
$39 each
LARGE GHOST
Approximately 4.5” tall x 3.5” wide
$44 each
Each ghost is handmade, so slight variations in glass color, texture, and facial expression are part of what makes yours one of a kind.
Seasonal Note: These are made in a limited Halloween batch and will only be available during spooky season. When they disappear, they disappear until next year.
Hang one in your window and give the neighborhood something to wonder about.
PRE-ORDER pick up option: If you are local, you can pre-order your bat for pick up at The Boss Babes Bash at The Vague Collection on October 1, 2026 from 4:00-7:00 pm. If you are not local and need your ghost shipped, it will ship no later than 10/9/26.
Brightfire Artworks creates modern stained glass art designed to transform interiors through color, sunlight, and atmosphere. Handmade in Pacific Grove, California, each prismatic piece casts a vibrant light and shifting rainbows that bring warmth, personality, and joy into your space. Created for ocean lovers and California dreamers, these colorful stained glass artworks are a bold alternative to sterile, neutral decor.
Hi, I’m Erica, the artist behind Brightfire Artworks.
I began working with glass in January 2022 during the quiet days of the pandemic. My young daughter was napping for longer stretches of time and I—like so many others during that strange time—needed a creative escape. Glass quickly became a life-line that I would turn to in the stolen moments of motherhood, and has been a source of joy and creativity through the years since I started.
When my daughter started school, those quiet moments opened up into dedicated hours, allowing me to take the leap and transform my creative craft into a full-time business. Today, I use that focused energy to create unique, hand-crafted pieces designed to bring color and light into your home.
Thanks for being here!
