Glass knives by Jared Delong

“The body of work that he just finished, carved and sculpted glass knives, was the technical feat that served as a bridge. “Making the knives was a big learning process for me from the technical end, and also from a planning and patience perspective.” The knives have clear glass blades, and the handles onsist of a colored glass section and a frosted, clear glass section sculpted in the shape of an animal head — a gazelle, an eagle, a boar and the beautiful snake pictured Above. They entail some hot work, but also lots of carving and shaping that happens when the piece is cold.”
