How’s It Made?

Handcrafted from art glass, we create the Snowflake Standup using multiple steps. First, we cut and polish the clear glass to the appropriate size. Next, we apply the snowflake design using various colours of glass powder. We are careful to apply multiple snowflakes without disturbing the powder of the first snowflakes. Next, we add tiny white frits to the design.

We kiln fire the glass to allow the frits, powder, and sheet glass to fuse together. The colour is the glass itself, you won’t ever have to worry about the colour fading or washing off. During the firing, the glass is annealed. Because of this, the strength and durability of the glass is increased, so you know it will last for as long as you own the glass art.
