Projects are all custom and done on an individual basis. We work
through your project with you and produce samples and prices based
on the design and scope of the pieces. After receiving your deposit
we will start your project. Glass needs time to heat up slowly
and cool down slowly so; this takes time. If we try to move too
fast; the glass will break. Each project usually takes between
four and twelve weeks…a little patience is needed while
we all wait for the dazzling results.
We use glass in its many forms; cullet, billets,
frit, stringer, sheets and many others. These are basically
all different shapes of glass. We use these in different ways
to make each piece individual and unique. No two will ever be
the same. Glass is placed into a mold and then heated to 1600
degrees. At this point the glass combines and fuses into one
large piece. After cooling for a few days we take the piece
out for finishing. It is ground and polished by hand and finally
ready to deliver.
The
size of the pieces is only limited by the kilns that we have
in the Studio. We can make pieces up to six by twelve feet and
from ¼” to 6” in thickness. The glass is
very versatile can be used for all things; tables, stairways,
doors, ceilings, walls, lighting, benches, countertops and even
windows… too many possibilities to list. Please contact
us if you would like further information or glass samples.
