There are several techniques employed in making cased floral pieces. Colored glass rods and glass millefiori are used to create the distinct flowers that are cased and suspended in molten crystal glass. The crystal glass is then blown and hand-formed into it's final shape. The piece is then polished, signed and given a number for limited edition.

It is important to understand that the color in the piece and the flowers are not painted on with paints. The piece is completely made of glass.

We are very proud that we have developed and use all our own colors and glass formulas. We start with raw materials, sand. soda ash, potash and metal oxides, and finish with these beautiful one of a kind museum quality pieces.
