Patent attributes
A process for fabricating glass art, comprising the steps of: (a) providing a first substrate and a second substrate, wherein each of the first and second substrates comprises an upper surface and a lower surface; (b) providing at least one wire, wherein the at least one wire comprises a first end, a second end, and a length therebetween; (c) associating the first end of the at least one wire with the lower surface of the first substrate and the upper surface of the second substrate; (d) heating the first and second substrates and the at least one wire from ambient temperature to an elevated temperature ranging from approximately 1,000 degrees Fahrenheit to approximately 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit over a period of time ranging from approximately 0.5 hours to approximately 10 hours; (e) maintaining the elevated temperature for a period of time ranging from approximately 1 minute to approximately 30 minutes; and (f) cooling the first and second substrates and the at least one wire from the elevated temperature to ambient temperature over a period of time ranging from approximately 0.5 hours to approximately 30 hours.
