Created by stained glass artist Radiant Art, this stained glass super ’shroom was created as an homage to the classic 8-bit Super Mario Bros. series. Instead of being made from pixels, it’s made from colorful glass. The piece was created from over 80 individual pieces of glass and comes in a 15-inch square zinc frame – I’m pretty sure there was no zinc in the Mushroom Kingdom. All I remember is gold coins. So much for accuracy. Feh.
