The
key to getting the best results from silver glass - both the reduction and
reactive types - is very careful manipulation of the flame's oxygen/propane
proportions, positioning the bead in the appropriate part of the flame, and the
cooling/heating cycle and timing that is used. Here Joan Houghton-Theall and Diane
Alexander watch carefully as Julie adjusts the flame and the position of the
bead.
Beads that Julie made during the Thurs/Fri class.

In this photo
Julie is making a cane which she will cut into murrini. The cane
has a base of transparent yellow covered with dichro and forced through
a 12 star optic mold. It is then lined with Triton stringer,
heated and pulled.

These beads are
made using murrini cut from cane made with reactive glass - iris orange,
we think.

One of the
things that Julie brought with her were samples of leaves pressed using
each of the reactive and reducing glasses that are currently being
marketed The Web Mama tried to take photos of the beads and their
identifying tags but was only able to capture three of the samples
showing their tags.
But the leaves with or without the tags were beautiful to look at.

Thank you Julie - it was a wonderful
class and the handouts that accompanied it are extremely helpful
as we further explore these complicated glasses at home. Julie may
be turning her handouts into a book - we can't wait!
