Product Description
Beautiful drapes with feet to stand on!
Creating a bowl with a glass foot reminiscent of a blown glass vessel has never been easier. This innovative system allows you to cast a glass foot that is easily paired with the popular Starfire Drape Mold. Draping mold produces a surprisingly large bowl with six gentle waves that ripple around the perimeter.
To get started simply fill the foot mold with your favorite glass scrap or frit and fire according to the supplied firing schedule. Once the foot is cast, use the included fiber rings while firing your drape. Cast foot is approximately 3-1/4" in diameter. Mold Bundle includes Starfire drape mold, foot casting mold, 3 sets of pre-cut fiber rings, and complete instructions.
Starfire Drape Mold measures 12" x 4" high. Foot casting mold measures 4" in diameter by 1-3/4" deep. Finished bowl and foot when fused together measures 12" in diameter × 7" deep.
Creating a drape bowl is simple:
- Cut one or 2 glass disks 11″ in diameter then decorate as you wish.
- Fire the disk first to create a fused flat blank – use the schedule provided in the 12-page color booklet that is included with the mold.
- Place your pre-fused flat blank on the Starfire draping mold and set the kiln controller to the recommended drape fire schedule to shape the bowl.
