Class Description

Jay Edyburn's beginner boro class is a must if you want to try flameworking. Jay will lead you through how to turn on the torch, safety precautions, and how to start creating some fantastic pieces. You will begin with a small piece or two and pick them up the next day! With over 20 years of experience working with Borosilicate glass, I have honed my craft in flameworking, creating intricate and stunning glass pieces. My journey began as an apprentice straight out of high school, developing skills that would shape my career in glass artistry. In addition to my expertise in borosilicate, I have dedicated nearly two decades to furnace work with soft glass, expanding my artistic range. My professional experience includes 10.5 years as a scientific glassblower, mastering precision and technique. My portfolio includes an array of unique creations such as pendants, marbles, Christmas ornaments, snowflakes, sculptures, and wine glasses. With over 10 years of lathe experience, I specialize in crafting pet and family cremation keepsakes, offering meaningful, custom glass memorials. I welcome custom orders and commissions—from personalized designs to specialty glass pieces. Contact me for more details and bring your vision to life through the timeless beauty of glass!
