Castle wedding cake topper of hand blown glass will top off your fairy tale wedding in brilliant crystal. Artist is Kevin Prochaska, Disneyland glass blower for 10 years.

Having made more than 10,000 castles during my tenure at the Magic Kingdom, I think it is fair to say that I have ample experience in the design and creation of these special toppers. Using a technique known as lacework, I form hundreds of tiny loops out of molten glass to create the body of the castle. The shape, thickness, and degree of uniformity of each individual stitch determine how much sparkle the lacework reflects. Much of the time I spent during my early years at Disneyland was spent refining my lacework to maximize its brilliance. The crystal braids that support the drawbridge add to the radiance of the design. I use clear solid glass to form the turrets and add contrast to the lacework. Castle measures approximately 9 inches tall and 4 inches wide, making it an ideal size for almost any wedding cake. Sculpture is very well balanced and because it is made from borosilicate crystal it weighs less than 16 oz.  Be sure to visit my profile for more information about my 35 years of glass blowing experience as I want you to feel confident about your purchase. I hope you will enjoy this work of art and the memories it represents for many years to come. Castle cake topper retails at specialty shops for $350.00.

    My fiancé and I are getting married in May, and our theme is Beauty and the Beast. When we saw the castle, it was absolutely perfect. Kevin was so kind as to add a red rose at the opening of the castle to match our theme. Thank you so much for your kindness and we greatly appreciate your piece.
