8" Square Plates W/ Clear "Displacement"

Built on a base layer of a solid opaque color a decorative patterned glass is cut into  irregular shapes and spaced symmetrically allowing the base color to visibly frame these pieces which adds the artistic interest of an additional color and accentuates the shapes.
A top layer of clear glass pieces are cut slightly smaller but shaped to mimic the decorative pieces underneath. When this is brought to a full fuse temperature of 1450° in the kiln the clear displaces the glass underneath and fills in the valleys creating a smooth surface and a slight shadow effect.
