WATCH HOW WE MAKE: Glass Posy Vases | Bath Aqua Glass

Watch us make this lovely Posy vase, all of our products are made in our glass blowing studio in Bath, England. Our glass blower gathers the clear molten glass from our furnace and then shapes it with wet newspaper. He then rolls the molten glass into the coloured sugared glass. The glass blower then reheats the gather and then blows out the shape. All the time turning the blowing iron to keep the shape. Next, the assistant glass blower brings what we call in the trade a punti iron (which is Latin for a bridge) and knocks the gather off the original iron onto the punti iron. This is so they can work the other end which is the neck of the vase. It is then shaped and knocked off the punti into a box and then put in the lehr (kiln) overnight to anneal. The next morning we have a wonderful Posy vase which we sign Bath 2019. We sign all of our blown glass at Bath Aqua Glass https://www.bathaquaglass.com. You can come and watch glass blowing daily at 11.15am and 2.15pm take a look on our website. We are ten minutes from The Roman Baths.
