I've used tones of turquoise and green coloured glass. This would make a lovely gift and looks lovely either on a mantelpiece or shelf, or on a window sill.\r\n\r\nTo make this piece I cut transparent art glass into 2 identical shapes and trapped handcut copper stems between the layers. I painted an oxide onto the glass which turns into hundreds of tiny bubbles in the kiln. This is then slowly fused in my kiln overnight to form a solid clear base. I then cut and shaped art glass leaves in tones of green and arranged onto the pre-fired background. I then added dichroic glass dots to add interest to the design. This all goes back into the kiln for a second slow overnight firing at a lower temperature to tack fuse the leaves and dots onto the transparent background. This lower temperature means the flowers, dots and petals stand slightly proud of the glass, to give it a slightly 3D effect. When completely cooled, I then put the piece into the kiln a third time to slowly slump it over a ceramic mould, giving it it's freestanding curve s\r\n\r\nSize approx: 12cm by 6cm by 10cm.\r\n\r\nItem comes securely packaged and wrapped in my signature turquoise tissue paper, sticker and string. A gift message can be included, just contact me to let me know.\r\n\r\nHandmade by me, Bex Burston\r\nBlue Design Shed - Fused Glass and Textile Art, Designed and Made in Cambridge","brand":"Blue Design Shed - Fused Glass \u0026 Textile Art","product_id":8407715,"availability":"in stock","quantity":1,"product_expiration":"2026-10-18T05:49:20+00:00","images":["https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-bcd4c5a4-3418-43ff-8fbb-77ab1b45126b-Fused-Glass-Flower-Curve-Handmade-Glass-Sculpture-Blue-Design-Shed-Fused-Glass-Textile-Art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-e4d7b2f7-5101-4f7c-9ffc-ec7869a3c78c-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-3164f874-6f0b-446a-bb2a-5396b842d37a-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-d023001d-f112-4576-a568-5f0aea4fe140-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-be72a63a-c578-43ff-b6c6-b657a2206ffc-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-fe1865ea-8c16-43db-b576-0d62c67f95c3-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-18d6f13e-69f6-421a-829c-270b05bf6fcd-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public","https://imagedelivery.net/0ObHXyjKhN5YJrtuYFSvjQ/i-542dd7e2-057f-4c23-b08b-f44e3300dfb7-fused-glass-flower-curve-handmade-glass-sculpture-blue-design-shed-fused-glass--textile-art/public"]}
