グラヴィール紫被せ浮彫鳥文花器

Copper wheel engraved glass

Designs are engraved into the surface of a glass vessel using small, copper engraving wheels. The copper engraving wheels are spun on a lathe and coated with grease and an abrasive grit or slurry. Using this technique, glass can be freely embellished with plants and animals or other motifs.
