Ruby New Mexico Platters
"I started making Ruby New Mexico Glass after discovering
several barrels
of red cullet (glass shards) that I had bought in 1975 but couldn't use because it was incompatible with my
clear glass at the time. Four decades later, this
cullet turns out to be
perfectly compatible with the clear glass that I use now. Ruby
New Mexico glass has a shade-shifting quality that makes it appear red against a pale background, but against a dark background the glass reflects the vibrant blue and lavender of classic New
Mexico patterning."
