Small Organic Slumping Mold

The Small Organic Slumping Mold from Creative Paradise is a ceramic slumping form that drapes a pre-made glass sheet or fused blank into a soft, freeform organic bowl shape. The form measures 9 inches in diameter with a total height of 2.5 inches and a slump depth of 2 inches, giving finished pieces a shallow but defined organic contour.

Like all ceramic slumping molds, this one is COE agnostic. Lay a cut or pre-fused sheet of glass over the form, prime it first, and fire so the glass softens and settles into the organic shape by gravity. As a ceramic kiln mold it is reusable across many firings when prepped and cared for properly.

What does the Small Organic Slumping Mold make?
It produces a single organic shaped glass bowl or dish, roughly 9 inches across with a 2 inch slump depth, from a pre-made glass sheet or fused blank draped over the form and fired.

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

What size glass blank do I need?
Start with a sheet or fused blank sized to cover the 9 inch form with a little margin so the glass settles evenly into the organic contour as it softens. Test a practice run first to dial in the blank size for your preferred finished profile.

How do I prep the mold before slumping?
Coat the surface of the form 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 surface of the form 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-cut or pre-fused glass sheet over the form. Size the blank to cover the form with a little overhang so the glass drapes evenly into the organic shape as it softens.
• 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.
