How is it made ?
Designs are cut from flat sheets of glass.
They are then assembled into the design and fused in a kiln.
Subsequent operations slump the glass into its final shape and anneal it
for durability. Click here for more

Why is it unique ?
Fusible glass expands
at a specific rate to avoid cracking during firing. Producing a "compatible" glass suitable for
fusing is an intensive process
that increases the production costs of raw material.
