I put these in James’s thread, but thought I would also post them by themselves. These are kiln formed glass. Some are cold worked, some are tack fused, and two have decals fused to them.

Far out Zeke. Like them dichroic's a bunch. Been anxious to see your stuff.
Sure like the way you fuse the bail into them. I cannot as I am a terrible flame polisher and must tumble polish which causes problems with the melted in bails darn it. Those glass pendants can pull in good chunks of money. It takes a lot of effort to fuse glass like those.

The results were less than spectacular LOL. We sell a few on Etsy, but the competition is fierce. We do better at local shows.

We have 2 kilns and it appears one is becoming hers and one mine. She knows the personality of her kiln and me mine. She buys fancy Bullseye and Spectrum glass(cheats) and I melt mostly rogue vases and scrap from the glass blower(challenging). So a constant battle is raging with spice flowing in the air. My style is more masculine concoctions and hers are feminine. Let's say beauty and the beast lol. We each loaded 'our' kilns a few days ago and I turned the wrong light switch off which turned her kiln off. The next day she was out to choke me lol, looking forward to her creations that didn't happen. It rained all day yesterday so we did glass in the basement. A good pastime on inclement days.
