Inside out glass

445_Tricolora, Thick Glass Pipe.jpg
Glass pipes  have usually the colour patterns on the outside surface of the glass but a really good glassblowers can make pipes that have the patterns on the inside. This is usually called  "inside - out" work.

All the setouts are surely more difficult for the blowers also as time consuming but it is really worth it. Products looking like that are very attractive and mind-blowing.

How does it work?

The entire color pattern is magnified by the thick layer of glass between the outer surface of the glass and the pattern. Also, as the inside work melts flush with the inner surface of the pipe, the color patterns 'sink' into the glass causing beautiful 3 dimensional structures to appear deep inside the glass.
