 | How do they make this? To make first the blower picks up crystal clear molten glass and then after carefully shaping a "bullet" shape puts a small bubble in which becomes the hollow part of the vase. Then he rolls this bullet across a table with the gold powder and fires the powder into the glass. Continuing to blow and shape, the vase is transferred to a "puntie" for final shaping and then into the annealing oven to slowly bring it down to room temperature and prevent cracking.
