Chirping a song of peace, tiny birds safely rest on colorful flowers. Gelacio Girón paints the detailed composition on the underside of glass panes that he carefully mounts on wood. He then incorporates gold purpurine accents to achieve an antique look, stylizing the six coasters to Colonial times.

"Exquisite Coasters"

Bought these for a friend years ago and decided I really had to have a set for myself. Beautiful enough to display on the wall. Rich, vibrant colors.

"Wow, just beautiful"

These are even more wonderful than the photo, in fact almost too beautiful for use as coasters. I am displaying some of them. They came extremely well wrapped--I was very impressed. There were so many layers of wrapping that I wasnt sure where the innermost one was and I accidentally nicked the side of one of the coaster with my scissors, so fair warning. You will not be disappointed with these.
