Lavender Diamond — A One-of-a-Kind Mosaic Gem by Allison Eden
Lavender Diamond is a one-of-a-kind stained glass and mirror mosaic artwork by Allison Eden, handcrafted in her Brooklyn studio as a celebration of light, glamour, geometry, and the irresistible brilliance of fine jewelry.
Like a real gemstone, no two Allison Eden mosaic diamonds are ever exactly alike.
Each angular piece of stained glass and mirror is individually cut, selected, and placed by hand to catch and reflect light in a different direction. The result is a highly dimensional surface that appears to sparkle, shift, and move as the viewer walks past it. From one angle, the artwork feels crisp and architectural; from another, it becomes luminous and jewel-like.
Creating the piece requires weeks of meticulous hand craftsmanship. Every facet is carefully composed to mimic the drama and complexity of a cut gemstone while still retaining the expressive irregularity and unmistakable hand of the artist. Mirror, translucent glass, textured glass, and colored elements work together to create a constantly changing play of reflection and depth.
The finished work functions as both contemporary art and a sculptural object, two dimensional but appearing three dimensional, bringing the presence and visual impact of an oversized jewel into an interior. It is designed to become the crown jewel of a room — glamorous, bold, reflective, and impossible to ignore.
Allison Eden’s mosaic gems have been presented in major art and design settings, including Salon Art + Design with Heller Gallery, Oscar Molina Gallery in Southampton, and luxury hospitality and residential installations including the Four Seasons Hotel and Eau Spa Palm Beach, as well as the homes of private collectors.
Created entirely by hand at Allison Eden Studios in Brooklyn, New York, each mosaic gemstone embodies the studio’s mastery of stained glass, mirror, precision cutting, composition, and light.
For collectors of contemporary art, Pop Art, glass art, jewelry-inspired artwork, and distinctive statement pieces, Allison Eden’s mosaic diamonds offer something truly unusual: the visual seduction of a jewel transformed into large-scale collectible art.
Inspired by the brilliance of fine jewelry, Allison Eden’s Lavender Diamond is a one-of-a-kind stained glass and mirror mosaic artwork handcrafted over weeks in her Brooklyn studio.
