Easy Pâte de Verre

Pâte de verre beauty without the hassle

Pâte de verre is traditionally a casting method that requires almost as large an investment in special tools and materials as it does education. This book takes a different approach by making it possible to create beautiful pâte de verre glass without the challenges (and mess) of plaster casting.

From the sparkle of the signature “sugar crystal” surface finish to the traditional low (bas) relief design possibilities, this book will teach you to cast work in molds cut from fiber paper and then give them dimension with familiar slumping techniques.

With almost 70 pages of clear, step-by-step instructions, more than 150 photos and diagrams, and SEVEN detailed projects, the education you'll get from this book is more valuable than many classes costing ten times the price. The projects in this book requires only common fused glass hand tools and a kiln. The book includes schedules that work with both Bullseye and System 96 glass. The information is suitable for all levels of experience.
