Glass Blanks
The easiest way for customers to work with glass is to start with a blank. This acts like a canvas for a beautiful glass creation to be assembled on. We provide warm glass blanks in squares & circles in several sizes, which provide many options for glass projects.

Glass Slabs
Slabs are 12 inch x 6 inch rectangles of glass. Slabs can be used as a blank or can be cut up and used for a decorative layer in your project.

Glass Blocks
Blocks are 2.5" x 6" pieces of glass that are ideal to cut and use as design elements in your glass projects.

Bits & Strips
Bits and Strips can be used to create borders and design elements of various colors to decorate your glass project. All BI warm glass is System 96™ Compatible. 96COE.

Dichroic & Odd Cuts
Dichroic warm glass, or dichro, is a very unique and beautiful design element for glass projects. It has a beautiful colored metal finish that can make beautiful accents for projects, as well as warm glass jewelry pendants. Warm Glass Odd Cuts are basically the odd cuts that are left over from all of our glass cutting and processing. Odd cuts are a very economical way to buy glass for mosaic type warm glass projects.

Noodles
Noodles are long thin and flat pieces of glass similar to linguine. Noodles are ideal accents to your glass designs.

Rods
Rods are 1/4" diameter cylinders of glass. They are a versatile design element that can be used lengthwise, or cut into really short pieces and set on their end to make small perfect circles, or rod dots.

Stringers
Stringers are very long and thin pieces of glass similar to angel hair pasta. Stringers are great accents for your warm glass project.

Stripes
Stripes™ are a great way to introduce several colors into your project. These 2" x 12" rectangles have 3-4 colors in a linear design and are sold 6 per case.

Buffalo Chips
Buffalo Chips are glass chips smaller than a quarter but larger than coarse frit. They are easy to use, very affordable, and they add fun and variety to your warm glass offering.

Frit
Frit is glass that has been crushed into small pieces and comes in three different sizes; Fine, Medium, and Coarse. Frit is probably the most versatile type of glass. It can be used to fill gaps in between larger pieces of glass, used to add accents, complete projects can be made using nothing but a blank and frit, and it can also be used to add texture to your finished piece if fired to a contour or full fuse firing. Learn more about Contour and Tack Fusing your warm glass projects in our Warm Glass Training Guide. Have fun using coarse, medium, or fine frit for your studio projects! All BI warm glass is System 96™ Compatible.

Pebbles
Pebbles look like Milk Duds made out of glass. They can be used to make circles in your glass artwork. They also make a great surface texture when your project is Contour or Tack Fused. Learn more about Contour and Tack Fusing your warm glass projects in our Warm Glass Training Guide.

CutUps
CutUps™ are colorful little glass design elements cut into funky shapes that are extremely difficult, if not impossible, to cut out by hand. CutUps™ are available in stars, spirals, and blobs.

Multipens
Multipens™ are ideal for writing on glass projects! They are just like detail writers for bisque, only for warm glass! Decorate your next project with freehand designs using Multipens™. They are food-safe when fired from 1400 - 1550 degrees F, or during a contour or full fuse firing. Learn more about Contour and Full Fusing your warm glass projects in our Warm Glass Training Guide.

Fusing Molds
Create decorative pieces by fusing loose glass such as frit, buffalo chips, or many other types of decorative glass into these Warm Glass Fusing Molds. They can also be used for slumping as long as holes are drilled in them first.

Slumping Molds
These Slump Molds have been specifically designed to slump your warm glass projects. Holes are pre-drilled to allow air-flow underneath and through the glass project for perfect slumping.

Bisque for Slumping
The bisque you already have in your studio may be used to slump glass! Using your existing bisque shapes is an economical way to quickly add options for your customers to slump their warm glass projects. All you need to do is drill holes in the bisque prior to slumping, so that air can escape from under the glass project and prevent large bubbles from forming.

Stainless Steel Molds
Stainless Steel molds are used for draping your glass project. The difference between draping and slumping is that glass is draped over stainless steel molds and slumped inside of bisque molds. The inside cover of the Bisque Imports Warm Glass catalog has an example of glass draped over a stainless steel floral form .

Stainless Steel Grids
Armored Kiln Gear™ Stainless Steel Grids are the hottest way to create interesting shapes and add texture to your glass projects!

Character Pods
Use Frit to fill Character Pods for warm glass casting! The finished pieces can be used for decorations, paper weights, or fused onto large projects similar to Tag-Alongs™ on Bisque.
