Slumped glass

It’s as it sounds – a sheet of decorated glass sagging into a ceramic shape. We made the forms out of an oblong of rolled out clay last week, incised design textures into them with shells, string and other items and then suspended the whole across an upturned chair, rather like a jelly bag and something of that shape. Here’s mine . I can’t say I like this sort of shape. I used a degussa enamel panel that I didn’t feel like working on any further. I might add some lustres to it.
