Bowls

 

   Each bowl is blown with carefully selected Reichenbach, Kulger and Gaffer imported colors glass rods. These rods are approximately one inch in diameter and twelve to fifteen inches long. They come in a multitude of colors and allow the glass artisan to blow many different colors with only one clear glass pot of glass. A one inch piece of color is broken off the glass rod and attached to the blow pipe. After the initial bubble is formed, clear glass is gathered around the pipe. A chunk of white color is heated and marved to a point and attaché to the clear glass as the blow pipe is rotated on the rails of the glassblower’s bench. The white glass is wrapped around the clear in a circular twisting pattern and raked with and ice pick in four spots. The glass is reheated, encased with clear glass. The process is repeated until the desired shape is achieved.
