Description
Glass jewellery is enjoying a renaissance right now, and kiln-working
glass has also grown in popularity over the last few years. This book
is great for students studying either glass or jewellery, for jewellers
who want to learn and incorporate glass techniques, and for glassmakers
who are not necessarily jewellers but want to learn. All these readers
will benefit from the step-by-step guides and will learn new skills.
This book is highly illustrated, with inspirational work from an
international range of contemporary makers alongside the practical
sequence photographs.
