THE MATERIALS

Individual pieces of glass are cut with simple scoring and breaker tools.  Straight cuts are easy; curved cuts are a little more challenging

ASSEMBLY

The individual pieces of glass are then assembled into a pattern.  This is the fun part!  The sky is the limit on creativity

FIRST FIRING: FULL FUSE

The assembled piece is then fired in a kiln, in this case a full fuse to 1450 degrees F

SECOND FIRING: SLUMPING

In this case, after the full fuse, the piece was slumped inside a mold to create a three-dimensional shape.  The final product:  a sushi plate
