A Fused Glass Links Pendant Made
From Fused Frit Oval Links
This glass links pendant is made from System 96 glass frit, fused in an oval glasslinks mold produced by Colour de Verre. Circle, hearts and diamond glasslink molds as well as many other styles are available from Colour de Verre for use in glass fusing.
These rings can be joined with jump rings or other fasteners; they can also be used as design elements in different fusing glass projects.The oval rings are first fused in the glasslinks mold and then fused again in a glass fusing kiln to make the pendant.
The rings are laid out as per the photo on a kiln washed or thin fire paper prepared kiln shelf and then placed in the glass kiln.Bring the fusing kiln temperature up to about 1400 F (760 C ) or slightly lower, do not allow the glass to overheat as it can lose its shape very quickly. Once satisfied with the result, switch off kiln and cool down to room temperature.
A large jump ring can be attached to the pendant for a chain or a pinch bail such as the one in the photo.
