Small Hump with Drop Flower Mold

The Small Hump with Drop Flower mold from Creative Paradise is a ceramic hump mold that slumps pre-made glass into small flower shapes with raised centers and deeply curved petals. The mold measures 3.25 inches in diameter and 1.5 inches tall, making it a compact form for jewelry pendants, brooches, or decorative accent pieces.

To use it, a pre-fused glass blank or sheet glass is placed over the hump form and fired so the glass softens and drapes down over the raised center and curved petal profile by gravity. Like all ceramic kiln molds, it is COE agnostic and reusable across many firings when prepped and cared for properly.

What does the Small Hump with Drop Flower mold make?
It forms one small flower shape per firing, with a raised center and deeply curved petals, from a pre-made glass blank or sheet glass draped over the hump.

How does slumping over a hump mold work?
A pre-fused or sheet glass blank is placed over the top of the hump form, centered on the raised flower profile. During firing, the glass softens and settles down over the mold by gravity, taking on the raised center and curved petal shape.

What COE glass can I use?
Any COE. Ceramic kiln molds are COE agnostic, so the same mold works with COE96, COE90, or other fusible glass. Match your slumping schedule to the glass you are using.

How do I prep the mold before slumping?
Coat the mold surface with a kiln shelf primer such as a boron nitride spray (for example ZYP) or a kiln wash such as Hotline Primo Primer, and let it dry completely before placing your glass. Re coat as needed between firings.

Working Notes

These are guidelines, not guarantees. Every kiln fires a little differently, so test a small run first when the result matters and follow a slumping schedule suited to your glass and kiln.

• Prime the mold surface with a boron nitride mold primer such as ZYP Boron Nitride Mold Primer, or a kiln wash, and let it dry completely before placing your glass so the glass does not stick.
• Place a pre-fused blank or sheet glass over the top of the hump, centered on the raised flower profile. The glass will soften and drape down over the petal contours during firing.
• The mold is COE agnostic. Use a slumping schedule matched to your glass, adjusting the final anneal soak for your COE.
• Let the kiln cool fully before removing the slumped piece. Re coat the mold with primer as needed between firings.
• The Slide Hi Temp brand separator is not recommended with these molds.

Creative Paradise Suggested Firing Schedule

This is a suggested COE96 starting schedule, not a guarantee. Every kiln fires differently. Test a small run and adjust the schedule for your glass and kiln.

Slump (COE96):

*Segment 3 is the anneal soak at 950 F for COE96. If using COE90, adjust this temperature to 900 F.
