Product Details
This decorative art glass platter is a unique take on a cake stand! It can be used as a beautiful functional item, or left bare as it is a very striking piece of art glass.
This piece is quite complicated to make. First I made the round black base flecked with 23.5ct gold. This is fired for 3 days and polished.
Then, using textured fabric I made a plaster mould incorporating the base and fire this in the kiln with clear glass, again over 3 days.
The mould is broken away and finally I highly polish the rim which creates a lovely contrast to the texture on the underside.
I love the depth created by the transparent glass over the black and gold base.
No two of my handmade art glass platters are the same! However many of these glass pieces I make opening the kiln and seeing the result is always a joy!
