About this item This unique centerpiece has been carefully handcrafted and decorated in Poland - famous for its long history of hand-made glass production. The exceptional quality of this product is achieved with time-honoured blown glass techniques that are executed manually by skilled local glassblowers. Combining excellent workmanship with the latest technology, design and decoration techniques allows the creation of elegant centerpieces that are unique in their appeal. Glass products from Poland are famous and generate interest among customers all over the world. About the process The following three stages of the manufacturing process are executed manually, making each product unique: Stage 1: several minerals including silica sand and soda limestone are carefully measured and melted in a furnace at temperatures reaching 1700°C. Stage 2: a skilled glassblower gathers molten glass at the end of a hollow tube, mouth-blows into the tube while rotating it, using various tools and gravity to create a variety of forms, including vases, bowls, decanters etc. Bubbles of air can sometimes get trapped within the molten glass (and are occasionally visible in finished products) which is an acceptable and authentic part of handmade, mouth-blown glass. After achieving the desired shape, the glassblower cools the molten glass object down. Stage 3: an experienced artisan decorates the glass items using various decorative techniques. Depending on the desired result, the item is sandblasted and/or engraved and hand painted to create a unique glassware product. HANDMADE glass flower vase: mouth blown by a glassblower and hand decorated by an artist. Thanks to the manual production, each vase is a unique centerpiece: slight imperfections (air bubbles, irregularities) are an authentic evidence of an artisan creation. Every glass ornament from the 'Nature Inspired Collection’ is designed and made in EUROPE. FINEST MATERIALS: this classic flared vase is made of premium glass with smooth cut edges. A heavy bottom and thick walls will ensure stability for your favourite flower bouquets. Unlike crystal glassware, this beautiful vase is made of safe 100% LEAD-FREE glass. TIMELESS DESIGN: this beautiful pearl brown vase is accented with etched and painted golden ginkgo leaves decor, and painted gold inside to create a stunning contrast and add an elegant touch to any interior.
