Falling Leaves Fused Glass Long Platter

This platter features our falling leaves design screen printed in bronze mica onto transparent bronze glass, flanked with light amber glass, then fused in a kiln to about 1400 degrees.  It is then cold worked on wet saws and grinders, then returned to the kiln to slump into a mold to almost 1250 degrees.

It is about 7 1/2 x 15" x about 1/4" thick and, after fusing, is slumped into a sushi-style mold, making it about 1 1/2" tall at the corners.

These make great wedding and housewarming gifts. Each platter comes wrapped in colorful tissue, please let us know if you need a gift box. These make fantastic serving or cheese/charcuterie platters, and look equally fabulous on your table or hanging on the wall. They are food safe and while they are dishwasher safe (china cycle, please), we recommend hand washing (dishwasher detergent can etch glass over time, resulting in scratched and cloudy glassware).  Platters are each handmade by artist Laurie Freivogel in her tiny Oak Park, Illinois studio.

This design is part of a series and has other matching housewares!
