That is the largest one she has done so far. When heating glass to the melting point, the larger it is the trickier it is. It is a slow process so it does not shock the glass. It just breaks if something goes wrong.

glass NW ohio She has only been doing sgraffito for about four years. It is 96 COE She makes the murrini she uses on the small branches too. It is hard to find fine frit now. I sure she has 100 lbs but she is always looking for more. We have made some frit too.
