Fused Glass “Pearls” Platter Using Opaline Glass
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
I wasn’t sure exactly how this would turn out, but it was easier than I thought and turned out great! Making the “dots” may have been the hardest part, but only because I don’t have much patience! LOL

Opaline is my favorite glass by far. The second glass I taught I had to ‘fix’ three of these that the previous instructor never finished. Then I spent a month making balls to make on for myself. I did one in clear and one in opaline and a couple of small ones with a mixture of both, my boss sold them all when she emptied the kiln. Not what I wanted. But now I want to make another
❤❤❤ I'm sure the recipient will be amazed!!!
I like the addition of the small frit balls. I have made some with luminescent in a single layer and had problems with the edges keeping together.
opaline is my fav magic glass! Great job! I have always also wanted to do this project!
A beautiful piece.!❤
Nice 😊
All that work was well worth it!

all those dots!!! definitely a labor of love!!! beautiful job as always!
What a great technique! It turned out beautifully. I was so excited to see you use your Quickfire. It's just a great tool to have when you need it. Thanks, as always, for sharing your glass addiction with your fellow addicts.

Sweet! Definitely looks great with the added frit balls. Very nice and successful platter.
doing this with a reactive white and maybe a blue or green it reacts with would be so sick.
Love it!
WOW!!! Very nice!
Well done Jamaison, very pretty!
Stunning!

I would have thought you would need to go hotter for the dots. That finished piece is super cool! Beautiful work.

Have previously made a couple of these bowls and everyone who sees them comments on how pretty they are. 👍
Beautiful project! -- I hate making dots. They are a necessary evil. 😉
As usual, project and excellent teaching video that I want to replicate in some way. However, I cannot find a glass similar to opaline in 96COE. Do know of a glass produced in 96COE similar to Bullseye Opaline.

Oceanside Compatible line is rebranded Spectrum System 96. They have one called Crystal Opal. I always had trouble with multiple firings of white glass. It seems to be more brittle, fracture more easily than other colors
also does your linktree contain where you got that cutting system? looks amazing.

No, I actually bought the cutting system second hand, but you can find it online at creatorsbrand.com. It’s the strip pro cutter with slide bar, waffle grid, the whole kit.

@@JamaisonSchuler cool beans. i have a morton system but i like that this one has a ball bearing sliding cutter. i mix alot of kiln formed murrine techniques with furnace work ones, and that would help me a LOT.
Why didn’t you start with a clear base?
@JamaisonSchuler

Because I did not want the clear to interrupt the lacy pattern. It’s more of an art piece than functional. Clear glass would still pick up texture and I didn’t want that seen in the gaps
Why didn't you use clear glass under the beads to make the dish more sturdy? If you cut the bottom circle an slightly smaller, it wouldn't show at the edges and still give support. The piece was beautiful but some of those small edge beads made me nervous.

Artist choice. 🤷🏻♂️ I considered it, but I did not want clear glass (which would pick up kiln shelf or paper texture) to distract from the lacy appearance of the piece.

@@JamaisonSchuler You can use float glass as a kiln shelf for a smooth bottom. I think Zyp works on float.
Very cool. I’m thinking of taking bubble paint from Paula in between 3/4” squares and doing the same. Only if you don’t mind. Thanks Jamaison for the idea.
