Beautiful Stained Glass Fins

I just got off the phone with Sarah over at Rainbow Fins and we were discussing the stained glass fins they have been making. They have produced over 870 of these stunning works of art and are only in their second season of producing them. While the technique remains somewhat of a mystery, it is obvious that each fin is a unique piece that can be admired with or without a surfboard. These are functional pieces of surfing equipment that your wife won't make you keep in the garage. The fins can be custom made to match a board, and some surfers/art collectors have had boards made to match the fins. Sarah told me that they have made a special stained glass fin piece to be used as the open sign at Surfy Surfy, a surf shop in Leucadia opening May 1, 2010. I think I'll have to make a morning run to Beacon's just to check that out.

Here are a few of Sarah's favorite fins.
