Anyone with any info on this?
Can you apply molten glass to glazed pottery?
This made me think about it

Hi Elizabeth,
I have never done this, but, I would guess...
That one would do well to have the Pottery the same
temperature as the Molten Glass, and, to then let them cool
at the same gradual rate which the Glass itself prefers...

I've played around with apply crushed glass on to bisqueware. The amount is hard to gauge,too much causing puddling. I do at some time want to try a sheet of glass onto a slab or slump into a bowl shape. Haven't tried molten glass.

Greetings All---Hi Elizabeth you wrote

What makes this a difficult proposition at best is the differing expansion
rates of clay and glass.
Most, if not all commercially produced clays and glass, are to the best of
my knowledge, non-compatible. Though glass is often seen melted into the
bottoms of Ashtrays and the like, it is usually crazed and prone to failures
caused by unequal stresses.
Steve Branfman uses ground glass as a surface treatment, but I ve never seen
anyone pull handles or attachments out of glass and successfully adhere them
to clay in any other way than by gluing them together.
Theoretically if you heated both materials to a state in which one could be
adhered to the other and then annealed them correctly and their expansion
rates were compatible ---yes it could be done.
Maybe the best tact to try would be to melt a known glaze and see if you
could work with it in the manner of glass or modify it to make it plastic
like glass yet still remain compatible with a clay body. Then with a blob of
glaze/glass on the end of a punt and your pot heated in an appropriate kiln,
you could apply the blob of glaze to the pot and pull handles or
attachments.
Theoretically--------
Boy, then we could give those glass guys a run for there money----:-)
