fused glass bowl made from beer bottles
‘get smashed!’ is a project by seth nagelberg, in which he looks to utilize the glass from used beer or wine bottles to create new tableware.
designer’s own words: I begin by sorting and smashing wine and beer bottles. the shards are arranged on a kiln shelf and fused together in the ceramic kiln. the fused glass is placed over a bowl mold that I made and fired again to slump the glass into the mold.
