Helios Fused Glass -Austin, Texas

Jewelry Fusing


Love a little "wearable" sparkle?

In our jewelry fusing class even experienced artists are likely to learn a lot about adding depth and detail to jewelry "micro-art".

You'll learn techniques for making professionally finished pendants and cabochons, improved techniques for cord/chain holes, sandblasted surface techniques and working with pre-made components like minicabs, murrini, glass threads, "overfired powder" and more.

New in 2008: We've added basic cold-working (grinding and polishing, etc.) for small objects and extended this class to a total of 10 hours of class and work-time.

This class has also proven to be especially popular among mosaic artists looking to set their finished pieces apart by adding the truly unique tesserae that only fused glass allows.

Students will make up to a dozen pieces suitable for stringing or putting on a chain.
