Tingley Glass | Harford, PA | Custom Glass Products

Dichroic glass has been used as a scientific material for precision optics such

as the Hubble telescope, but its unique light transmitting qualities lend

themselves well to the creation of beautiful one-of-a-kind jewelry pieces.

Fused glass is created by layering clear and colored glass pieces and then

firing the layers in a kiln. With this process, Jan can create a range of work

from delicately patterned earrings and pendants to bold and bright platters

and bowls.

Stained glass can be adapted for everything from small projects like sun

catchers and nightlights up to full windows like the one that began Jan’s

career in glass. She needed a window for a home renovation and found it was

faster (and more fun!) to learn to make one herself than to wait for a

commissioned piece. Jan likes the versatility of stained glass and the range of

effects that can be created by using different colors and textures of glass.
