Description:

The Large Glasswork Masher Tweezers are a parallel-pad tweezer masher made from durable stainless steel with flat, square jaws designed to close evenly. This style of tool is used in lampworking when you need controlled compression and shaping while the glass is hot, especially for flattening and forming broad surfaces without twisting the work. The 1 inch by 1 inch masher faces make it well-suited for quickly pressing in petal and leaf forms and other flattened sculptural details.

How it is used:

  • Heat the area of the gather or sculptural element until it is soft enough to move without cracking.
  • Close the parallel pads onto the hot glass to mash and flatten evenly, keeping the tool square to the surface to avoid skewing the shape.
  • Use repeated light presses to refine petal, leaf, and similar flattened forms while maintaining clean edges.
