The Fused Floral Collection is a testament to the intricate artistry of Portuguese artisans. The process begins with a flat piece of clear glass, which is carefully cut into the shape it will become. The number of colors in the piece determines the number of templates used to layer the sand onto the glass. Artisans start by placing the first template onto the glass and sifting sand through it to fill the template with a specific color. With precision, the template is then lifted and removed. This process is repeated until the flat glass is nearly covered with different colors of sand. Next, artisans lay a clean piece of clear glass on top, creating a sandwich, and carefully transport it to the kiln where it rests upon the shape it will become.
