Pâte de Verre is a glassmaking technique that involves the creation of a mould made of a heat-resistant material, such as plaster or silicone and the filling of the mould with small pieces of glass. The glass is heated until it melts and fuses together, creating a solid piece of glass in the shape of a mould.
Today, pâte de Verre is still used by glass artists and designers to create unique and beautiful pieces of art and jewellery. The technique requires a high level of skill and craftsmanship, making pâte de Verre pieces highly sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
