Dome with Flat Skirt
Thursday, April 25th, 201318′ Dia. Dome
Wednesday, March 27th, 2013
Passing through the entry foyer and into the rotunda the eye is drawn up to our 18′ dia dome above. It is lit both naturally by a skylight, and artificially in the evening with energy efficient LED lights positioned for a soft even glow. The design and pattern inspiration is Victorian in nature reminiscent of lace work. Similar to lace work this dome has been crafted entirely by hand.
Texas Dome No.2

This is a 6.5′dia x 2′ ht. leaded glass dome and features a custom painted frame. The opalescent glass was specially ordered directly from Kokomo, and each jewel was sandblasted and hand painted on the reverse side in order to soften the appearance. A very subtle classic dome.

A Little Sapphire

I have always thought our domes were jewel like but this one with its sapphire touches is much bigger than any ring I’ve ever seen.
