Essential Techniques & Classic Projects
Fran Soler. Master the age-old, beautiful craft of mosaic! From selecting the right tools to choosing materials--especially the classic rectangular chunks of hand-made Italian glass called smalti--plenty of tips are given for setting up and organizing a workspace, with basic techniques and illustrations in glorious full color. See how to cut the glass, use found objects like buttons and beads, and affix them in a design. Then get to work on more than 20 projects in a variety of styles. Make an elegant Roman swirl mirror frame, a Byzantine box in jewel-like colors, an Aztec serpent wall panel, a geometric table top based on Islamic patterns, a dragonfly vase, bright modern candlesticks, and much more. From a hand mirror and a picture frame to a front door and ceiling, almost any object can be transformed into a work of art using the versatile technique of mosaic.
