A friend of my wife did this Roe deer skull. It is 100% glass.

I'm in awe. That is a work of art and I'm trying to comprehend how it is actually all glass. Well done.

What kind of process? I don't understand is it cast or a sculpture? It looks cool as Heck. I just don't know what we are seeing.

Pate' de Verre is what it is called. It is done with a mold. The brain cavity is hollow just like on the skull. I would guess she would do a skull for you if you want. Coyote, bobcat, coon what ever. I would guess it would start at about $10,000

I had just read an article on the 3D glass and how far it's come. I wouldn't be surprised if they could do that with a printer beore too long.

I can't imagine how long it would take to mold that.

The horns were molded separate from the skull and fuzzed on. There was 21 hours in the annealing once all put to put together. So many things could go wrong so many times.
