Finding Rodolfo just made my heart sing.  Standing in a room full of this wonderful, whimsical, joyous celebration of life was magical.  The work itself is so pretty and well-done, and the colors are fabulous.  The glass itself can be used in many ways.  I hope to incorporate his 12" tables into our product mix, a table absolutely perfect for 2 cocktails out by the pool or patio, using these designs.

I also really appreciated watching the girls paint Rodolfo's designs.

Water base paint is applied to a flat circle of glass.

Many styles are in various stages of drying at all times.

The glass is fused (baked) and then packed.

The glass is fired (fused) at 1560 degrees F,

making it safe for food as well as to just sit out to collect compliments. The glass is slumped over a mold as it heats,

making the flat sheets form into plates.
