Sari Blue Shard
£11,500.00
The Shard series is created using the kilncasting process. This involves heating up and melting glass in a refractory mould, set within a kiln. The resulting form and colour distribution depend on achieving the appropriate temperatures, followed by a careful and lengthy cooling cycle to properly anneal the glass. Coldworking often reveals quite surprising and magical interior effects.
