We will be adding Plantphibian to the website on

We will be adding Plantphibian to the website on Tuesday Nov 17th at noon EST. Backorders seem to be working well so we'll leave that option available for 24 hours after the initial release. Backorders typically get filled within a week or two.

Also, we've changed our web url to moltenaura.glass because it looks neato 😀

The .com version should still work, it will just forward to the new one.

This phat Plantphibian sherlock was made by @houseofwiens

It includes #citrine and #lotuswhite accents.

Enjoy our repost of this beautiful Gold Amethyst and Sterling Silver Anchor Chain made by Charlene Foster a.k.a. @chacha_chainz last summer. We love seeing our colors used in her elegant pieces.

Showing off the awesome rigs by @credoglass today! He's made pieces with many of our colors and always does super clean work with interesting shapes. The full color blowouts are set off nicely by his black and white murrini. Shown here are Citrine and Royal Jelly. Thanks for letting us repost and thank you to @jlzill for the fantastic photos!

We are so proud of our friend Kit Paulson @kitpau

We are so proud of our friend Kit Paulson @kitpaulson for getting her sculpture entitled Lungs into the Renwick Gallery at the Smithsonian Museum! It seems to be a very topical subject matter seeing as it was finished at the beginning of a pandemic involving a respiratory illness. Congratulations Kit!

We're pretty excited that she used our glass as well. She used Gold Ruby, Moonstone, and Lotus White to create this incredible sculpture.

The Italian glass maestro, Cesare Toffolo used our Gold Ruby to make these amazing filigree miniatures. We received some fantastic feedback from him regarding our colors and feel honored to have our Sandcrafted® glass as part of his palette. Cheers! @cesaretoffolo

In other news, we just added some Moonstone to the site. Backorders are on (for Moonstone only) for the next couple of days, so folks who miss the immediate drop can still get some soon.

Wanted to share this recent work by @evolempiregla

Wanted to share this recent work by @evolempireglass highlighting some of our colors with their amazing designs and ultra clean execution. These rigs are highly sought-after and we're always excited to see this level of work made with our glass!

Also thought it was a good time for an update. As many of you have discovered, we have been having a heck of a time keeping our glass in stock. We've had unprecedented demand for all of our colors these past few months and have not been able to meet that demand just yet. The best way to stay informed about a color you're looking for is to sign up for notifications on our website. We are trying to stock up a bit more before posting to the website, which should enable more people to get the glass once notifications have been sent out. The good news is that we're settled into our new facility and getting equipment and processes dialed in. We appreciate everyone's continued support and patience while we implement new solutions to ensure our long-term goals and vision.

We've been busy these past few months and we deeply appreciate everyone's patience and support. Know that when you purchase our glass you are supporting the growth and evolution of your own industry. We invest heavily in R&D every year. And in addition to configuring a new space to increase our capacity, this year we decided to invest in acquiring our radioactive materials manufacturing and distribution licenses with the state of NC and the Federal government. These licenses allow us to create and sell glass containing depleted Uranium Dioxide. The glass has been tested and our production passed all inspections and we were granted our licenses recently.

That being said, we are proud to announce a new addition to our palette: CITRINE is a yellow GemTone that glows brightly under UV light. This color looks fantastic on its own and also works great as an overlay to add an extra dimension to your work. This new color is available at moltenaura.com!

There's still more to do to get caught up with production. Our Sandcrafted™ process is demanding and full of challenges. But we remain as excited as ever to push the boundaries of what seemed possible for the borosilicate color spectrum. Our goal remains to invent and inspire. And now we are poised to better meet demand with current colors, while steadily adding to the humble, yet impactful Molten Aura palette.

Latest from The Lab: We've been doing our best to

Latest from The Lab:

We've been doing our best to keep glass flowing as much as we can during the transition to the new facility and the ever-changing pandemic landscape. North Carolina is currently allowing businesses to "maintain minimum basic operations to maintain the value of the business's inventory and preserve the condition of the business's physical plant and equipment..." It's just the two of us, and we are doing our best to keep ourselves and our families safe and healthy while continuing to make and sell glass. Visit moltenaura.com to find our colors.

We've got a few notable batches on the site currently. There is a batch of Gold Ruby Light at $100/lb (1st quality glass) and a batch of Gold Ruby Red Hue ($160/lb) that is a nice saturated color. It is a touch more red in hue than our usual batches (also 1st quality glass). And there is a slightly denser batch of Plantphibian available as well (1sts and Abnormals). We appreciate all of the support and trust that everyone is doing their best to take care of themselves and each other! “Everything has a crack in it; that's how the light gets in.”
― Leonard Cohen

Thanks to @et_glass for the sweet Lotus White icon! He made this for the Molten Aura show @level42gallery last year and it is now hanging in our new space.

Hello all! We're busy moving production to a new facility and have been shut down for a bit while making the transition. We apologize for the delays, and appreciate everyone's patience. We will be back in full swing soon with more glass, more colors, and more innovations for the colored borosilicate industry in 2020 and beyond!

@captncronic has been making some super impressive work lately. We wanted to repost these images to show off his stuff and highlight his fantastic use of our colors using blowouts. Smooth haze gradients plus his clean shaping and eye for proportion really elevate these pieces to the next level.

Super fun times here in Asheville this week for @glassrootsartshow and the charity event @level42gallery

We really enjoyed meeting so many artists and getting the chance to connect and re-connect with people we don't get to see often enough. (we don't get out of the lab much 🙂 Also fantastic meeting Thomas and Jodi from @glassalchemy and James from @northstarglass Keep up the great work and as always we look forward to seeing what's next from the west coast color makers!

And of course, thanks to everyone @mountainglass for their hard work and for representing us at the show!

We just hit 20k followers! Perfect timing right between our @level42gallery show opening and the @glassrootsartshow

Seems like a good time to say THANK YOU to the many artists, resellers, galleries, collectors, and supporters who have made themselves an invaluable part of our journey.
We have a lot of exciting things on the horizon here at The Lab! We're looking forward to more collaborations, more innovations, many more colors, and more technical and aesthetic boundary breaking for the borosilicate universe.

We've got some sweet new t-shirts on our website courtesy of @asheville_screen_printing including a ladies Royal Jelly tee and a unisex Plantphibian tee.
And if you're in town for Glassroots, swing by the @mountainglass booth for some interesting Molten Aura Labs colors... #ashevilleglass #moltenaura #moltenauralabs #level42gallery #glassroots #art #glass #borosilicate #20k #spore #agate
