Fused glass Decorative Plate. The glass in this plate has been in the kiln 3 times before becoming this stunning and very unique art piece. First I make the round bead with bubbles inside. Then I assemble the plate using a clear base and white and fuse it flat. For the final firing the glass is put on a mold and fired very slowly so that the glass melts taking the shape of the mold. This final step is called a "slump" and takes 12 to 14 hours depending on how big the piece is.
This is truly one of a kind stunning piece of art.
