  • The Venetian glass makers of the 16th century invented the marvelous process of the 'crackle' heating and cooling technique, creating a multitude of reflective surfaces, so every movement displays sparkling new radiance.
  • The glass is immersed in cold water while it is molten hot, thereby cracking the glass.
  • The glass is then reheated and either molded or hand-blown into the shape the glass blower desires.
  • The reheating and coating of the glass seals the cracks.
  • If you run your fingers over the crackle beads, they feel smooth to the touch.
