The arts (Glass work)

One of the arts that has not been used for quite some time is the use of glass work in normal context. The art of glass making is one that is not been seriously taken as a profession and also for appreciated as an art by the masses at large. The ability as a glass blower to change certain elements from sand to a solid object and also to mix the colores is something that should be appreciated  The windows of ancient and current standing buildings are thanks tot the different arts of the glass maker. From stained glass to hanging chandeliers above you or un-top of your dining table. These marks of art are things that should be taken serious and should be reckoned with as pieces of art that create bold statements about the people who have these pieces of art in their houses.

Opalescent glass implements a variety of shapes and also of colors to give the glass a particular type of look and feel of the colors and shapes at hand. The viewer is able to see a multi-colored view of a particular object placed at a certain place within a room or just a s a piece of art.




These are just but a few of the different types of art that are created with the use of glass. Nevertheless, the glass blower is able to bend the glass at his will and command. This then allows for a variety of shapes to be created and designed to create something spectacular to behold.

Ring mottled

As the name suggest it is colored glass that is made and shaped to the design of rings. This particular type of glass making would most likely  fit women rather then men as men are more inclined to wear gold and silver than glass on their fingers.

The use of glass can be bent at will and also manipulated as when needed by the glass blower. The mix of colors and also the use of shapes allows for the glass blower to play around with ideas that they find particularly interesting.
