no, it will not be strong enough at high temperatures. if the ring were very thick / massive, it could be made from a 50/50 mix of pottery plaster (not plaster of paris) and ground silica (any mesh will do, although we prefer 200). Normally, the rings are porcelin, fired and coated with kiln wash (very easy) or high temp fiber. good luck.

I love the creativity of the glass project where you’ve slumped layers of glass down onto other layers of glass and fused it into one piece. I’d love to see more of the strips that were cut from this piece and what projects were made with the strips.
Thanks for sharing!
