It’s hard to say!
My process is somewhat labor-intensive: Crush glass scraps into bits, sprinkle those on sheets of glass and fuse together, slice the thick fused slabs into 1x1 chunks on a tile saw and smooth out all of the edges on a grinder, then fire them in the kiln again to polish the ground edges. It’s a great way to make a lot of pieces at once, though, for a small home studio. Wild guess? I’d probably have to retail them for at least $12 per tile if I were to pay myself a living wage … and more to make a tidy profit
I used to sell a lot of art pieces and such, but mostly do it for fun these days since the day job is in the way.
