Fused Glass Pendants by Lynn Smythe

Fused Glass Puzzle Pendants by Lynn Smythe

Creative Cottage Founder and Chief Designer, Lynn Smythe, works in a variety of mediums including fused glass. She created these fused glass puzzle pendants to sell in her online shop and giveaway as gifts to friends and family.

To make the pendants, she starts out by stacking 3-4 layers of glass and fusing them together in one of her kilns. This creates a large glass blank, which she takes to her diamond band saw to cut out various puzzle shaped pieces. The pendants are placed back in the kiln for a second firing, to fire polish the edges, which were roughened by the diamond band saw. Once complete, she attaches a pendant finding so they can be worn on a neck chain or choker with magnetic clasp. The pendants use a lot of dichroic glass, which changes color depending on the the way light is reflected off the surface.
