GLASS AND ITAY MAGER
Jews have long been associated with glassmaking. The ancient art was known in Israel centuries ago and with the growth of blowing techniques, glass vessels became affordable and popular. In the 19th century, Baron Rothschild set up the first glass factory in Israel and today, glass artist Itay Mager sees himself as a link in a chain that stretches back centuries.
He takes pride in enhancing Jewish ritual experiences with the beauty of his glass products. He favors the color blue – a traditional Jewish color always associated with spirituality and things Divine.
GLASS TECHNIQUES
Itai Mager utilizes a special technique to fuse and slump glass together. After the glass becomes soft, the pieces flow or “fuse” together. For slumping, the glass is bent into or over a mold. In the high kiln temperature, it flattens and takes on the shape of the mold. The subsequent cooling process relieves internal pressure in the glass and ensures its durability. The glass is then brought to room temperature.
