Pâte de verre
Pâte de verre is a technique in which a form is fashioned with clay, which is used as the basis for a plaster mold. Glass powder is mixed with a special kind of paste, and the mixture put into this plaster mold and fired. The heat causes the glass to melt and take on the form of the mold. Then it is slowly cooled and removed from the mold, and it’s finished.
Did you know?
Fine bubbles penetrate the entirety of the glass so that it becomes translucent and produces a unique pale glow.
