Large glass plate in orange-red with yellow ovals and dark brown thread lines, signed, dated 2004 Glass, orange-red, incised signature and dated 2004 on the underside, flat, slightly irregular round plate with a raised, folded rim at one point, in the well a yellow field with two bright yellow ovals and above it black-brown thread lines curving in bundles, good condition, 50x46x8 cm (LxWxH) In fusing, glasses of different colours with the same coefficient of expansion are fused together in a kiln at 800 to 900 degrees; fused glass is one of the techniques of art glass. The studio glass movement, which established glass as the material of the individual artist, began in 1962 with Harvey Littleton's workshops at the Toledo Museum of Art; in Europe Erwin Eisch (1927 Frauenau to 2022 Zwiesel) was one of its co-founders, and in 1965 the first studio glass furnace was built in Frauenau. As is usual with glass bowls and glass objects of art glass, the plate is signed and dated under the base.
