I recently purchased some wavy/textured dichroic glass** from Art Glass Decor in Lewisville, TX. If you live in the DFW area, check out what Greg and Cheryl have to offer the glass and hobby artist. They do have an E-bay store as well.This is a 3 layer thick fused glass pendant:
Bottom is black art glass
Middle is the new wavy/textured dichroic glass that I purchased from Art Glass Decor
Top is clear glass
I just love the way this tile pendant turned out. I will have it up in the Dichroic Glass Section as soon as I can.
**What is Dichroic Glass?
Made by vacuum depositing a special coating onto a glass sheet. The process creates a mirror like finish that reflects a specific color but when the glass is held up to the light, a different color is seen (transmitted) through the glass. This is a NASA technology that we fused glass artists have borrowed for jewelry making and decorative purposes!
