Sophie's Stained Glass | The Different types of Art Glass

[@Sueevans152326]

Very informative. Love to see video on which glass is easiest to cut

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

I find the hand made (mouth blown) glasses cut really nicely. St Juste and Lamberts.

With all the multitude of glass textures, opacity, as well as colors you can choose from, it's a lot to take in when designing a stained glass piece. That's what makes this form of art so interesting to me.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Yes - the possibilities are endless!

[@kainmilam8883]

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Thanks Sophie and John. Super helpful to learn the more frequently used glasses and also good to know the price ranges too.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

So glad it was helpful.

This is very interesting and helpful. I could watch for hours. Thank you, Sophie!

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Many thanks! Glad it was helpful!

[@trustmemysonisadoctor8479]

This was so informative. I do hope you include the information about the different glass textures and how easy/difficult they are to cut in your up coming book.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

That's the plan - and was actually the starting point for the video - I wanted to make sure I got everything right!

[@vickig3196]

Great video! I wish I’d seen this when I first started working with glass. It was so difficult trying to figure out what was what.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Absolutely...I still struggle 😂

[@anniedugan9397]

Really, really helpful. Thank you.

[@Shelleyshelleyxyz]

Thank you for sharing info.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

a pleasure!

[@angleglass8929]

Really useful video. I learned about the renamed Spectrum glass to Oceanside. Also fascinating to see some of the iridescent translucent opalescent glass as I haven't used these glasses.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Thanks Zoe, glad it was useful!!

[@anniedugan9397]

I missed the name of the iridescent glass with the daisy patter as there was traffic in the background.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Florentine. Yes it's a noisy road!

[@melanieaway]

Sophie, why are the translucent glasses only for limited use. And thank you for the wonderful videos

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Glass that doesn't let much - if any - light through will unbalance a window and block out the light. That is why it is more suitable for uses other than windows.

[@neongreenon]

Can any transparent glass with a smooth side be used for painting? What is your favorite clear glass to use for painting?

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Actually it probably depends on what I'm painting. Perhaps St Just for faces - but for things like leaves, I'm not so fussy.

[@dibyadhariwal6229]

What thickness of glass to use?

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

Most glass is about 3mm

[@dibyadhariwal6229]

@@SophiesStainedGlass can we use any 3mm glass for stained glass craft?

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

@@dibyadhariwal6229 yes

[@BoyGorge]

I did not understand what he’s saying, so i didn’t get the names of these glasses.

[@SophiesStainedGlass]

I'm sorry about that.
