Custom handmade glass wall sconce lamp
Private Residence, San Diego, Ca.
This wall sconce lamp combines two types of glass working.
The first is Lamp Working, where different colored glass is combined then manipulated in a hot flame. Once the colors are completely combined they are finally pulled out into long rods called "Cane". Once cool, the glass canes are arranged on a sheet of glass then fired to about 1450 degrees, so that all the canes melt together. Finally the completely fused together sheet of cane is laid on a form and again fired and brought up to slumping temperature, where it follows the contour of the form below thus giving it it final shape.
