To
reach Galle quality needs very high skills and
experience in order to bring you the best products. Part of the work is
based on the glass blowers individual abilities
that were achieved after years of experience. Still the work is done as
is used to be hundreds of years ago because no machine can handle the
moulding glass as a man and a blowing-pipe can do. These processes allow
the worker to feel the shape of glass as the artist can feel the shape
of a sculpture out of a piece of stone. The piece of work needs to pass
several stages till it will get to you, it starts being applied between
3-5 layers of different coloured glass than it is laid to chill in the
oven for few hours. , After that it is subjected to repeated paintings
and acid cuttings to produce the floral or landscape design. The most
important thing to know is the fact that everything is hand made because
no industrial processing is possible to achieve the same quality. Even
the shape, colours and design may be similar for certain model of Gallé
type product; in fact each one is unique.
