our glass and techniques

Bevelled glass

All of our glass is bevelled. The glass edges are cut on a slant – when the light refracts from the cut edges it creates a shower of rainbows!

Single bevelled

This glass has a single cut at a slant – it sprinkles rainbow colours when the lights refracts from its edge. Single bevelled glass is available in clear, and also in beautiful transparent blue, peach and green.

Double bevelled

This glass has two cuts on its edges – creating more rainbows when the light hits its edges. Double bevelled glass is only available in clear.

Dichroic

Originally created by NASA for use in satellite mirrors, dichroic glass has become an incredible material to create stunning art objects. Multiple ultra-thin layers of different metal oxides (gold, silver, titanium, chromium, aluminium, zirconium, magnesium, silicon) are evaporated on to the surface of the glass in a vacuum chamber.

The nature of dichroic Glass is to reflect many different colours. When you move dichroic Glass you see different colours from various angles. The brilliant optical properties of dichroic glass are the result of the layers of different metal oxides.

The beauty of this special glass is extremely difficult to capture in a photograph, and if you have never seen dichroic glass before, you really will be amazed!

Stained glass technique

In our stained glass studio, we use the copper foil technique, which was established a century ago by Louis Comfort Tiffany.

Each piece of glass has copper foil wrapped around its edges before soldering. Flux is applied before joining the two metals together, allowing the solder to flow easily. When applied to copper foil, hot solder melts and creates a sturdy seam that holds the glass pieces together. We use a mixture of 60% tin and 40% lead.

Once the piece is completed it is then washed, waxed and polished, ready for hanging.

Each finished three-dimensional glass form has a stainless steel chain and ring attached ready for hanging.
