Fused or kiln-formed glass is assembled and heated in a kiln where the glasses soften and fuse together. Fusing art glass almost always results in the formation of some air bubbles. Handcrafted sheets may have variations in color between sheets, even with their highly controlled mix. These inconsistencies contribute to the character and beauty of finished glass-work and must not be considered flaws.
