How Are Glass Birds Made?
Our birds are mouth-blown by master glassblowers. To make these unique creations, glassblowers inflate molten glass using a blowpipe. The glassblower then begins to shape and form the bird. This step is repeated many times throughout the process and additional steps are taken when adding multiple colors, patterns, and shapes. The major tools used by a glassblower are the blowpipe (or blow tube), punty (or punty rod, pontil, or mandrel), bench, marver, blocks, jacks, paddles, tweezers, newspaper pads, and a variety of shears.

This owl can go anywhere in the decor.
Beautiful! Hope they make some more with color.
Now get the lilac owl and pine\green owl in, so I can add them to my owl flock.
Finland rocks!
Truly lovely with its brilliant blue head. It will be a treasured “Santa” gift for a loved member of my family!
I was going to order online as I usually do, but I was having trouble getting it to go through, so I called instead. I got a very pleasant person who took care of everything in no time. I have only had fine service when dealing with your people on the phone. Thank you so much. My friend is very pleased with his glass bird collection. Phyllis Mattill
Perfect packing and condition. Great price. 5 stars
This is my first Bianco Blu bird and I love it. Exceeds expectations and I admire it every day!
The graceful shape of the swan was captured in a beautiful white, textured body of the swan, with an amazing blue-ish, metallic beak - stunning!
What a lovely bird. The colors are stunning with the bright orange head next to the teal body. And the “feather” designs in the body really add to the Thrush’s special look.
Een heel mooi boek. Staat van begin tot nu veel achtergrond informatie in. En alle vogels tot de editiedruk in. Ik heb het boek net te vroeg gekocht waardoor ik geen gebruik heb kunnen maken van de korting.
Beautiful photographs and comprehensive review of birds!
Nice companion and coffee table book to go with the birds!
