| | Glass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Colored glass is often used, though sometimes the glass is painted; notable examples of painted glass include the work of contemporary artists Judith Schaechter and Walter Lieberman. | | | Hand-blown glass beads and pendants illustrate some of the myriad colours and shapes of glass art. | | | Glass is, however, brittle and will break into sharp shards. |

| | All art glass is one of a kind. | | | Each glass art piece is made by hand using an age-old technique called kiln-forming or lamp-working. | | | Since each piece of art glass is made by hand a design is never used more than once, no two pieces of glass art will be the same. |
