Happy Accident!

Post by Aryana B. Londir »

Here's an example of a happy accident! The mold broke during the slumping (don't know why!) but the result is quite cool......any comments?

That's a nice piece. Sometimes those accidents are great and the piece tells us what it wants to be. Without seeing your mold I can only guess why that happened, but it looks like the mold may have been thin in that area and gave way under the weight of the glass. That's just a guess.

Anyway, congrats, it's still a neat piece
