Glass Sculptures That Can Take Years To Make

Показать описание
These are glass sculptures made by Cold Glass artisan Jack Storms, He is known as "one of just three standout cold glass craftsmen.

Unlike traditional glass artisans, who use flame & heat to make glass malleable, allowing them to mould it to a desired shape, Jack does not use heat, he cuts, polishes and laminates, until the glass pieces shine like mirrors.

It all starts with that coloured cube glass core. Working with blocks of lead crystal, he cuts them several times, grinding and polishing each slice. Then, with the precision of a surgeon, he inserts slivers of coloured di-chroic glass between them at every stage, pausing to glue and cure them before repeating the process. The end result Glass core, emits a kaleidoscope of colors, which looks like the glass equivalent, of a rubics cube.

This core is then encased, in sculpted optic crystal, he then hand-sculpts the final piece to the desired shape on a cold press lathe. The Optical Crystal helps with refracting the light passing through the sculpture, and creating a hypnotic light show of colors.

Thanks for watching

This man is the most gifted sculptor on the planet. It doesn’t seem possible to create such amazingly beautiful pieces of art. One of my goals is to own a piece of his sculpture one day. He is just so incredibly talented.

Stunning! I want one, actually another. When I was young, I'd one in my collection. It used to sit next to the window & early in the morn the sun used to play with it. Rainbows, lots of colourful lights were dancing in my room. I still remeber those reflexions. My friends believed that lovely piece of glass came from another planet! Oh those sweet olde days of 60s, 70s. I lost that long ago. This video is nostalgic. Thank you Scott for uploading, from Great Britain (Thu 28 Jan 2021 1049)

They are impressive. Thank you. Not many people know about glass sculptors. It is nice to note that someone has paid attention though.

These cubes have a special meaning all over the world, some kind of deep meaning. Even on one of the poles of Saturn looks like a tilted cube. Trippy.

I would love the Egg or Tear Drop placed on my mantel with a glitter painted wall, and track lighting.
