Abstract: A device and method for stamping or extruding molten glass sheet material into discrete glass parts defined by the shape of a metal or ceramic die may use force applied through one or more metal or ceramic punches to form precisely shaped glass parts. A molten glass sheet material may be positioned over the die and under the punches for processing. The molten glass material may be pushed through the die using, for example, hydraulic, pneumatic, electrical, and/or manual force to create a shearing action. The resulting glass part(s) may be subsequently moved to an annealing leer for controlled cooling while the residual sheet material may be gathered for recycling. Parts created with this method may be arranged into assemblies to combine colors for decorative effect, and reheated to unify them into a single solid piece comprised of an assembly of formerly discrete glass parts.
