    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of forming a glass article in which a glass sheet is bent over a forming surface of a chuck. The forming surface defines a first shape including a curvature having a radius of curvature of 1000 mm or less, and the glass sheet includes a first major surface in contact with the forming surface. A frame is adhered to a second major surface of the glass sheet. The frame includes a frame support surface defining a second shape including a second curvature having a second radius of curvature of 1000 mm or less. A total force is applied to the glass sheet so that the glass sheet forms a third shape including a third curvature having a third radius of curvature of 1000 mm or less. The third shape deviates from the second shape by 2 mm or less across the frame support surface.
