What is Borosilicate glass?

Borosilicate is a hard glass originally developed for commercial and industrial applications. It is perfect for larger art glass pieces and sculptures. It is distinguished from soft glass due to how much more time and heat it takes to get it to move. It does not easily break due to thermal shock. Borosilicate glass comes in clear and many colors.
