The medium of Fused Glass is one that few artisans dare to choose. The difficulties in working with glass multiplies when one is working in a country where utilites and transport are unreliable, and raw materials are not easily obtained. To create these wonderful items, pieces of local glass are painted and heated to 900 degrees in kilns. Opaque bubbles and striations of bubbbles mixed with natural designs of suns, flowers and waves are imbedded in necklaces, plates, rings and keyrings. The pieces are not just hand made art, they illistrate the lifelong commitment of these artisans have to thier craft.
