Still Learning from Scrap

I loved this triangular shard and decided to leave it just as it was, but repurpose it.  I assumed all of the harsh corners would round in the firing process, but hoped the overall image would remain in tack and  maintain the color contrast.  Since French Vanilla does react with some colors, I was concerned that the post firing result would be one big amber rectangle.

Although the amber glass is wider and the top of this pendant, and therefore contains a greater volume of glass, it is interesting that it has not created an irregular shape in the overall pendant like many of the earlier scrap examples.  Initially it seemed as though the transparent cap on the top help minimize the irregular shapes, as it has in this one, but the earlier orange and green/black were both misshappen.  More experimentation needed!!
