A Royal Wall/Window Glass Weave- This is one of my first glass weaves. It is made from two layers of thick 5mm fusible glass. The first layer is strips of gorgeous royal blue, rainbow iridized glass, decorated with clear and bronze iridized glass rectangles. The weave includes strips of clear and bronze iridized strips. The weave is tack fused onto a sheet of clear glass. The texture on this glass is gorgeous, and it is one of my favorites! It would look lovely in a window, on the wall, or displayed on an easel. The display measures 10" by 10", and hangs with nylon coated Beadalon cable wire (26lb. test). The flexible wire will come attached in the channels, and includes a strong white 3 prong wall hanger.  (one available)

IMG 9316 The Feathers of the Phoenix series involve an 8 step process. It starts with a glass brick being fused from layers of transparent and opal glass dammed between four kiln bricks. That brick if sawed in half and bookended, then fused again. The humped brick is then sawed into thin slices with a round diamond bladed Taurus 3 glass saw. The slices are again bookended together and fused with a piece of clear glass on top. All are very beautiful and never the same, and can be used in jewelry and plates. The glass feathers are laid out on a black piece of opal glass and fused flat. Then a transparent piece of glass is placed on top, and the plate undergoes another 12 hour fusing. The last step is slumping/melting the disk into the 10" bowl mold. These are the most complex items I have made so far. This popcorn bowl is 8.5" wide and 3" deep, and has a half-lip for easy pouring of snacks and treats. Stand included.
