also come in a variety of shapes, styles and colors. Fused Glass Bowls that are "slumped" like many of the large 15 to 12 inch round, square or hexagonal shaped bowls are a little more traditional, while 'Drop" bowls are truly unique. To create a drop bowl, after fusing the glass you plan to use, place the square shape you have designed onto a square mold with a large hole in the center. You then heat the glass slowly up to 1310 to 1325 degrees to reach the ideal temperature when your glass takes on more of it's innate liquid properties. The heated glass slowly stretches through the hole. Watching the glass carefully during this ‘dropping process’ will help you decide the exact point at which to 'vent' the kiln - stopping the drop process while you quickly cool it down to around 1000 degrees. Careful now - this is a critical time as the glass begins to anneal, slowly working through one of several critical stress points in the 'annealing process'. Approximately one hour later we can begin slowly cooling the glass again, very slowly until we have reached room temperature and it's safe to open the kiln and admire your completed piece, in this case, a fused glass drop bowl.
