Fresh cut glass

6/20/2017

 
Today I divested work I placed in the kiln on Saturday. Some pieces turned out, some didn't- "life's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are going to get". This holds true for the desired opaline color... The piece on the right shouldn't be opaque, it was supposed to be opaline. However, it's all a process and getting the temperatures to hit during the right time in the casting process all has it's variables. It's a scientific process to figure out the size of glass casting with the mold thickness and placement of the piece in the kiln.


These pieces when finished will be cast a second time on top of crystal boxes.
