The Process

From glass to artwork

  1. Choosing the Form

    Each design is composed for the line of the glass form; the pattern adapts to the piece.

  2. Composing the Pattern

    Motifs inspired by Ottoman glass decoration art are drawn onto the glass by hand — no stencils.

  3. Enamel & Gold

    Enamel paints are built up layer by layer; contours and highlights are finished in real gold.

  4. Kiln Firing

    The piece is kiln-fired, fixing the paint permanently and bringing out the gold's luster.
