I saw a set of six red & clear glasses at the goodwill store

I just had to have them

after getting them home, i took the hammer to them and smashed them into small pieces

then i fused it all flat into a rough pile about 12” in diameter

then i draped it over a stainless steel mold

i find this piece interesting in that most of the red glass turned brown during the first fusing.

not all of it, but most of it!
