I’ve been working with glass for 18 years now. Ever since I first picked up my chosen glass and glass cutter, I’ve been hooked. I am fascinated by the properties of glass, the array or colours and the processes that that can be used to create different effects. There is always something new to learn and new tools and materials to invest in. It really is addictive!

What I especially love about working with glass are the colours. From crystal clear to shimmery dichroic to opaque pure blocks of colour that will never fade or dull.

I hope I’ve made you curious about the wonderful world of glass too!

Full description

Fused glass hanging allium inspired suncatcher, in shades of blue and turquoise with lovely emerald coloured leaves. This would make a beautiful gift for a special friend and looks lovely in a window.

To make this fused glass hanging, I cut 2 rectangles of transparent art glass. I then hand cut copper foil with a scalpel to make the allium shape. I stencilled a specialist glass paint which turns into turquoise bubbles in the kiln on to one of the rectangles to make the head of the flower and carefully arranged the copper between the layers of glass. The whole piece was fused overnight. The copper turns a rich dark red in the heat of the kiln. Next, I added coloured and dichroic dots and green opaque glass leaves which I have made previously to give some added interest to the design. A second firing is done overnight the next day to tack fuse the dots and leaves onto the design, so that they stand proud of the glass, giving it a 3D effect.

Comes ready to hang on a silver wire.

Size: 12cm x 7cm.

Item 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.

Handmade by me, Bex Burston
