Each glass creation is unique and handcrafted, one by one! I use a propane and oxygen fueled torch to melt rods of clear and colored glass. The most popular glass for lampworking is soda-lime glass called Effetre or Moretti. This glass is manufactured in Italy, Germany, Czech Republic, China and America. I source my glass from glassmaking supply stores in the United States. I introduce a glass rod into the flame until molten, wind it around a steel mandrel and make various sculptures. All parts of the work piece must be kept at similar temperatures or they will shatter. Once finished, the piece is annealed in an oven to approximately 950⁰ held at that temperature for a short time, then slowly cooled to avoid thermal shock.
