I bought a pendant in Spain that was a domed circle and I have been trying to figure out how to do this.
Any ideas?

A glass dome?
Well, you could make a circle, then slump it in a dome shaped mold.

These are 1 inch circles with a convex suface. I am going to give it a try making my round pendant flat and using a slightly larger piece of glass over it. I do this for small earrings but haven't tried it for larger pieces.

Re: domed pendant
Are you sure it was fused and not torch worked? There are small casting molds available that may give you the look you're after.
Re: domed pendant
It was definitely fused but I think I finally figured out how it was done: by heating the 2 pieces to 1500 I was able to achieve the effect.
Thanks for your help.
