Broken Plates is a line of contemporary glass wearables that combines traditional blown glass techniques with modern CNC technologies. From the surface of either colorful hand-blown glass plates or tints of translucent plate glass, we use a CNC waterjet to precisely cut a series of two-dimensional shapes that are sanded and polished before being assembled into either kinetic necklaces or fused into three-dimensional forms to adorn the body. Complementary to this series of waterjet cut jewelry, we also explore solid wearable glass objects by digitally designing and 3D printing steel press molds that allow us to cast molten glass into a tangential line of hot cast sculptural cuffs and pendants. These cast pieces echo the language of our kinetic and stacked jewelry lines, expanding our vocabulary of form through a fusion of digital fabrication and traditional glass processes.
