Hand Blown Glass Vases: Molten Glass To Hand-Spun Beauty

The technique of glass blowing has been known for thousands of years, and it's as popular today as it ever has been. Hand blown glass, including vases, bowls, and other decorative pieces, are collectors items for many people around the world. They are works of art - not only functional, but uniquely crafted and designed by expert glassblowers. In fact, some people collect hand blown glass by specific artisans as they do paintings from specific artists.

All hand blown glass vase styles begin as silica sand. A special formula containing the sand is melted into a molten form. This molten glass is then spun by hand and unique elements are added to create specialized textures and colors within the glass itself. The following video gives you an excellent overview of the process. You can definitely see the intricate process involved with each vase, which makes every last one special and one-of-a-kind. Luxury Lane Hand Blown Multicolor Sommerso Teardrop Art Glass Vase with Angled Lip 9.5" tallAmazon Price: $50.17 Buy Now(price as of Sep 7, 2016)Hand Blown Glass Vase Artists At WorkWhere To Use Hand Blown Glass Vases
