- Watch master glassmaker and flameworker Kristina Logan demonstrate for her class at The Studio. Logan is internationally recognized for her precisely patterned, delicate glass beads, which she combines with metalwork to create jewelry and functional objects.
Kristina Logan’s beads are flameworked, a process which she says is “fluid, direct, and immediate” and which allows her to work with hot glass “on a very intimate scale.” Her work has developed over the years to incorporate glass beads into jewelry and other glass objects. She travels throughout the world teaching workshops and lecturing on contemporary glass beads and jewelry.

This is the second time I’ve watched this and so wonderful to absorb that colour placement and your sparkling personality Kristina. Thank you and thanks to Corning for recording this so well.
It's fascinating to watch how layering and building up the sections of glass can blend together to make intricate details.
This is fabulous. Thank you for posting such wonderful content. Kristina is the dot queen and it's so great seeing her work. ♡
Wow wow wow. I loved every minute of this demonstration. Thank you so much. Greetings from Tasmania. Maybe one day you’ll come visit us? 🙃🙏👏

Can I get details of a good intermediate home studio torch? I have had a few classes and went really well but although I’m a beginner I don’t want something totally basic as I feel I’ll progress quite fast seeing how I have gone quite well so far. I’d appreciate any feedback🙏
If you're working soft glass like Kristina Logan is in this video, then I would look at the GTT Lynx (The torch she is using here looks like an old GTT Lynx (The graphite pad on top is sold separately)). I use it for small Borosilicate Glass work like marbles and other things (Kristina is using soft glass, which is must more finicky when it comes to heat). When you start getting into the bigger items like functional glass pieces (Things to smoke out of) you would be looking at one of the 2 or 3 stage torches from GTT. They are rather expensive, and you need to remember to put some money aside for ventilation, but the Lynx from GTT is about $500. The 2 stage torch I want (GTT Phantom) is $1,200.
GTT Torches aren't the only brand out there though, but after using a few other torches (Redmax and a Carlisle) the GTT torches (In my opinion) are the top tier of the torches. They're triple mix which means you can adjust the flame REALLY precious.
I use Mountain Glass for all my glass needs and find tools around the house that help also.
Gtt cricket hands down. It doesn’t need as much oxygen, so just one oxycon. I make boro marbles to small 104 spacers. If not that, then the bethleham alpha. Perfect entry torches all the way to serious work. I do production work on both. Both are around 200.00.
Teaching/rental studios do upgrade their torches, and people retire. You'll get a deep discount buying used, and you'll know it's a well-loved model of torch, and you may be able to buy the rest of the setup, too. There are subreddits with lots of good Q&A about getting set up---the expensive part is the the space/studio, not the torch.
People seem to really love the price point and flexibility of the Bethlehem Alpha if you want something new.
Lol yall can't see the glass moving: watch the residual heat, that will help.
