This really is just a follow up of my tests which were carried out for glass slumping in a recent post. I have just finished silvering these pieces ,they are for a pub called The Rose and Crown in Chichester.
They are brilliant cut and acid toned, the glass is bevelled and I have slumped them to a matching bar back. I still have two more smaller pieces to finish. I am not fitting them but hopefully the owner can get me a photo once they are installed. They still need the silver residue cleaning from the front . they go today ,Hope they fit!

I also use crayons to sketch with Larry. Painting by numbers is in at the moment. I do have a few accidents and mistakes from time to time Raymond , mainly being inpatient with kiln times opening it to quick and actually hearing the piece ping. Here is one I made using gold chloride kiln paint ,I fired it a bit too low to get a bright gold finish, came out more 18crt its acid etched also. right old nuisence when this happens!
