Cast Glass Charm - Virgin Mary Glykofilousa

Elaborate lucky charm for the new year 2025, made of cast glass with Virgin Mary Glykofilousa. The art of cast glass requires specialized technique and special materials. Instead of tarpaulin, glass is used, while the colors consist of glass powders and grains. The process also incorporates metallic elements and inorganic raw materials in various forms. Traditional tools, such as the brush and spatula, are replaced by specially manufactured tools, often made by the artists themselves, depending on their imagination and needs. The completion of the creation takes place in a special oven, where all the materials merge and bond together, forming a single mass that “captures” the artistic inspiration. The transparency of glass and its special nature make lighting a crucial factor in highlighting the colors and details of the work. Each creation, handmade by nature, is absolutely unique and unrepeatable. An ideal gift to decorate and bring good wishes and luck to your home.
