Jo Ludwig’s unique 'Things of Beauty' ('ToBs') are created in a two-stage process of fusing multiple layers of glass then slumping them in a glass kiln. The assembled layers are placed in a glass kiln and heated until they fuse into a single piece of glass. After many finishing steps they are complete. The top layer of dichroic glass gives a brilliance to these small sculptures that dazzles all that behold them. The creation of these jewel-like works of art is Jo's passion.
