Uroboros Art Glass

Ring Mottle Sheet Glass is a glass maker's technique thought to be lost to the industry for more than 40 years after the closure of the Tiffany Studios. Use them for realistic-looking shadows, sunspots on leaves or ground, or to create small background repeats of larger foreground pieces.
 

Fracture Streamers Sheet Glass is made from eggshell-thin blown shards or flakes of intensely colored glass fused to the bottom of sheets during the rolling process. Use them in backgrounds to imply small scale repetitions of foreground features such as leaves or flowers. Fracture-Streamer glass is fracture glass combined with hand-stretched streamers or strings of glass. The irregular shaped streamers typically suggest twigs or branches in the background.

Streamers Sheet Glass has the unparalleled look of Uroboros sheet glass with Streamers is authentic to nature and true to Tiffany. The crooked, lumpy and delightfully quirky shapes of Uroboros’ hand-stretched streamers provide glass artists with a unique visual tool in their ongoing efforts to represent Mother Nature in their work.

Spot Mottle Sheet Glass combines a soft irregular mottling with Uroboros’ signature hand-rolled, slightly rough surface texture. Spot mottles provide non-linear opacity variations without the strong ring pattern of ring mottles. They are excellent for background areas, or for enhancing the illusion of depth behind foreground ring mottle glass.

Streaky Sheet Glass is unique! In order to retain the traditional look of antique stained glass, Uroboros' Hand Rolled, Hand Mixed Streakies are created with an 'orange peel' texture on both surfaces. This ‘Old World’ surface creates the complex, non-mechanical look and feel that would have made Tiffany himself proud!

Granite Sheet Glass popular texture is naturalistic and rough. It is created by a randomized double etched pattern on the glass rollers. The result adds depth, complexity and visual interest to any use, from backgrounds areas to foreground detail. Since Granite is of consistent thickness, it is an easy to use texture for all skill levels

Granite Mottle Sheet Glass is a fusion of two of the most popular sheet categories: the Granite texture and Ring Mottle Opalescent. The result is a fairly rough top surface, which refracts and disperses passing light, and softer and more randomly spaced mottles. Tiffany would have loved these!

Fibroid is a non-repeating linear texture is made by a hand cut pattern on the glass rollers. It was designed for use in traditional art glass for long leaf veins, rainy backgrounds, border row pieces, and for Prairie or Mission style geometric designs. Frank Lloyd Wright would have loved it!
