Glass Slumping:
Glass slumping involves slowly draping the glass over or onto a mold, and using gravity to "pull" the glass into the required shape.
This technique
allows for a myriad of effects and looks great in a variety of applications.
Fused Glass:
Fused glass involves "bonding" separate pieces of glass together, making it possible to create patterns and designs.
Laminated Glass:
Laminated glass provides shatter resistance to art glass pieces. It is also possible to laminate objects between the glass like fabrics and plants.
