Michael Hollman and Ann (Hollman) Ziegler -- Glass work (continued)
“Stained glass” is a term commonly used to describe three different art forms. True stained glass emerges when paint is applied to clear glass and fired; the heat of the kiln fuses the color into the glass, making it a permanent part of the glass itself. Leaded glass is formed by joining cut pieces of colored glass into geometric designs with canes of lead. No paint is used in this type of glass.
The popular facet glass originated in German Expressionism after World War II. “Faceting” refers to the method of sawing and chipping a design out of one-inch-thick glass to create a mosaic that is, in Michael’s words, “stunning and dramatic.” Because of the notable thickness of the glass, the colors are much more intense than the more common one-eighth or one-quarter inch glass.
