Handcrafted
Signature Fine Silver Design:
The blade detail is achieved using a process called “fuming”. For this piece in particular it is best viewed in front of a dark background, with proper display lighting such as LED displays or in natural sunlight.
Actual fumes of pure silver are applied and stick into the hot molten glass.
Essentially by controlling my torch and fuel ratios I can then “grow” crystals on the surface. These tiny crystals and minerals formed are what create the color change effects which can leave a metallic finish or be mixed into the glass.
Various glass overlays capture and encase the silver fumes allowing me to drag them through creating swirls and spiral effects. Many resemble an everlasting galaxy or universe design, waves and other organic flowing effects that will vary in color.
Any color of the rainbow will be reflected and can be achieved with silver. Fuming is permanent in your piece and will vary with every single item depending on techniques, temperatures used etc.
