Bottles are great for storing liquids like oil and vinegar, non-perishable drygoods or for using as a vase. Colored liquids bring out the details in the designs. Just add food coloring to water if you don't want to fill them with food. Each bottle has a coating of glass paint enhancing the etched finish. It is dishwasher safe, but may wear with excessive washing.
All the glass pieces I make are etched completely by hand. The designs are drawn or painted onto the glass, and then the design is carved out with a high-speed rotary tool and diamond burrs. This gives each piece a bit of personality and character. |
