Die inleiding beskryf al die materiale en toerusting, die soorte glas en veiligheidsmaatreels, en word gevolg deur stap-vir-stap-tegnieke en wenke oor die natrek en uitsny van patrone, slyp- en foeliewerk, hoe om die stukke saam te stel, soldeerwerk, vertinning en die aanwending van patina. Die wye reeks projekte - in tradisionele en kontemporere style - sluit lampkappe, kershouers, bewertjies, rame, muurhorlosies, spieels en nog vele meer in. Die eerste paar projekte word geillustreer met gedetailleerde stap-vir-stap-foto's om die grondslag neer te le vir die daaropvolgende projekte waarin meer spesifieke besonderhede uitgelig word. Al die items in die boek - hetsy dit eenvoudig of meer uitdagend is - beeld die wonderlike verskeidenheid glas wat deesdae beskikbaar is pragtig uit. Met die puik kleurfoto's van al die voltooide items, tegniese wenke regdeur die boek, foto's uit die studio met uitgebreide byskrifte vir ekstra inspirasie, en patrone vir die projekte is hierdie boek in moet vir elke handwerker.

An explanatory introduction on materials and tools, types of glass and safety, is followed by step-by-step techniques and tips for tracing, cutting, grinding, foiling, assembly, soldering, tinning and the application of patina. The wide range of projects includes lampshades, candleholders, mobiles, frames, wall clocks, mirrors and much more, in both traditional and contemporary styles. The initial projects are illustrated with detailed step-by-step photographs to lay the groundwork for further items where specific details are highlighted. From simple to more challenging, all the items included beautifully showcase the splendid range of glass available nowadays. Good use is also made of additions in the form of beads and glass mosaicing. With excellent colour photographs of all finished items, technical tips throughout, gallery shots with extended captions for additional inspiration, and templates for the projects, this book will be an asset on any crafters shelf.
