What is Fused Glass?  

Fused glass involves heating compatible pieces of glass to very high temperatures in a specially configured glass kiln. The glass is then securely melted together. At particular temperatures, glass can me manipulated in different ways. Glass can be formed with the use of special tools, slumped in or draped over handmade molds, dropped through holes in ceramic or terra cotta, or even embedded with metals such as silver or gold. It can require a lot of experimentation to get a new type of mold to work out just right. Glass fusing can be tempermental, but it is very rewarding, and each piece of jewelry or home decor piece is truly a work of art.
