Vaughn Evans is an American glassblower who specializes in the use of cremation ash in his work. He was born in 1982, and has been working with hot glass since 1999. In 2009, he began utilizing ash to create keepsake memorials for those who have lost a loved family member, friend, or pet. Beautiful marbles can be made using cremation ashes, or cremains. The ash turns a wispy white color, and develops tiny entrapped air bubbles when it is encased in glass. Cremation glass is a timeless, unique way to memorialize a loved one. The glass is borosilicate, which will resist scratches, and should never break in normal conditions. Vaughn dips the molten tip of glass rods into the ash, and uses it to decorate glass marbles, pendants, beads, paperweights, suncatchers, and other glass objects. The embedded ash is used as part of the design in many different ways. It usually becomes a wispy white, and sometimes has tiny bubbles coming from it. A wide variety of designs are used to achieve many different looks. The results are often incredible, especially when combined with the right kinds of glass.
