Process and Materials
In creating unique glass boxes I use many material that include handmade fused glass, copper, gemstones, wood, and others. I use some traditional glass construction techniques with a few of my own twist, fusing, metal fabrication and forging, wood carving (limited), and electroplating. I also cut and polish gemstone material. All of my boxes are designed, and handmade, by me, here in Franklin, North Carolina. The glass is custom made for each box using glass fusing techniques. My copper parts are forged using traditional blacksmithing techniques. Each box is electroplated with real copper to provide long lasting beauty, and coated with a protective sealant. Each box is a one-of-a-kind, signed piece.
