Glass stringers are thin rods of glass used in the creation of decorative objects, such as jewelry, figurines, and other decorative items. They are made by melting and stretching a thin strand of glass, which is then cut into pieces of the desired length.

Stringers are used to add fine details and intricate designs to glass objects, and can be used in a variety of ways to create different effects. For example, they can be used to create thin lines, or as accents to other glass elements. Stringers can also be used to create delicate flower petals, leaves, or other shapes, by layering and twisting different colors of stringers together.

The use of glass stringers requires a high level of skill and precision, as the glass must be heated and manipulated in a way that creates the desired shape and pattern. Glass artists often use a torch or other heat source to create the stringers, and must have a strong understanding of the properties of glass and how it reacts to heat and manipulation.

Glass stringers are often used in conjunction with other techniques, such as fusing and lampworking, to create unique and complex glass art objects.
