And folks dressed up like eskimos.”

How’s It Made?

Handcrafted from art glass, we create the Jack Frost Bowl using multiple steps. First, we cut and fire the aquamarine glass to the appropriate thickness. Then, we add sparkling glass powders to the surface of a ceramic textured mold. This allows for the shading in the fine details. Next, we add clear frits to ensure the shading is exactly where it needs to be through the firing process. Following this, we carefully place the blue square atop the frits and load the glass into the kiln. We fire it first flat to melt the glass gently onto the frits and powders, flowing into the textured crevices of the ceramic mold. The colour in the bowl is the glass itself. Therefore, you won’t ever have to worry that the colour and design will peel or fade in the sun.  Finally, once the glass cools, we slump the bowl into a ceramic mold and it cools into the bowl shape. During each firing, the glass is annealed. Because of this, the strength and durability of the bowl are increased, so you know it will easily withstand daily use.
