Glass Southwest Shapes

This category gathers COE90 fusible precut glass shapes with a southwest motif, ready to layer or accent in your fused glass projects. Expect cactus silhouettes, cactus with flower designs, and feather shapes cut from COE90 sheet glass so they are intended to fuse with Bullseye or other tested-compatible COE90 base glass.

What's in this category at AGS

The lineup centers on iconic southwest imagery in COE90 precut form: cactus shapes, cactus paired with a flower bloom, and flowing feather designs. Each piece arrives prepped and ready to use, which makes it simple to add a desert scene or accent to a panel, plate, suncatcher, or pendant. Browse the broader COE90 Glass Precut Shapes selection for more silhouettes to mix in.

COE90 compatibility

These shapes are COE90, so they match the expansion rate of Bullseye and other COE90 fusible glass. Keep your base sheet, stringers, frit, and other accents on the same COE system to prevent stress and cracking as the kiln cools. Do not combine COE90 with COE96 or COE104 in the same fired piece.

Ways to use them

Drop a cactus or feather onto a base layer for a desert themed coaster, plate, suncatcher, or jewelry blank. Use the cactus with flower piece as a focal accent, or arrange cacti and feathers across a larger panel for a southwest landscape scene. Because the shapes are precut, they're handy when you want repeatable design elements without cutting tight curves by hand.

Firing notes

Use a standard COE90 full fuse or tack fuse schedule depending on the finish you want. A tack fuse preserves the raised silhouette of each shape, while a full fuse melts it flush with the base layer. Clean each piece with glass cleaner or denatured alcohol before firing to keep oils and dust from leaving marks in the finished glass.
