An Aperture pour also called a pot melt is made by melting pieces of glass at 1550 degree f. and allowing it to flow through a screen or pot with a hole in the bottom. the glass flows onto a clay shelf and is then fired again at approx. 1440 degrees f. until it is the size and shape I want... then it is positioned on a stainless steel mold slowly heated to 1220 degree f. until it drapes nicely over the mold. this process can take 5-6 firings to get it the way I want it... each piece is unique and organic .
