recycled lead crystal

[Judy Schnabel]

I recently posted on the other board about a vase one of my customer's had given me. It was cracked when it arrived and the shipper didn't want it back.

Turns out the vase was lead crystal so I turned to Graham Stone's book to seek information about firing lead crystal.

I'm not looking for critique. This was just fun and a real challenge. I could really have used a wbs.

One of the little disks came about by my overfiring the first drop out bowl. I was sort of thinking in terms of float temperatures. NOT!!!
But I did get a little neat small disk with neat twirls of glass on top as the glass started to string.
