GLASS KNOB DESIGN & CONSTRUCTION:
We begin with large sheets of glass that are specifically designed to
be used in a kiln. All glass that is heated in a kiln needs to have the
same coefficient of expansion. In other words, it needs to expand and
contract at the same rate, or else it will not survive the firing
process.
We start by creating a particular design, and then we hand cut
individual pieces of glass and arrange them to fit that design. We then
take the product and carefully place it on a kiln shelf and transport
it to the kiln. Next, we begin to slowly fire it to approximately 1500
degrees, fusing the individual pieces of glass together.
We then gradually cool the kiln back down to room temperature, taking
special care not to "shock" the glass, which can occur if a specific
firing schedule is not strictly adhered to. A critical juncture in the
cooling process is the annealing stage. This occurs between
approximately 960 degrees and 750 degrees, and is the area in which any
stress in the glass is relieved.
Lastly, we carefully attach a solid brass base to each piece of glass,
utilizing a specific glue that bonds glass to brass. The entire process
can take 24 hours or more, in addition to the time spent creating and
preparing the design.
