Modern glass is manufactured on a torch using glass
rods in a flame of 3,500 degrees Fahrenheit, a process
dubbed "lamp-working"
after the medieval glassblowers who employed oil-lamps
and foot-bellows to make jewelry in the same manner.
The Vikings utilized these techniques using shards of
stained glass, raided from the churches of their southern
neighbors, to produce distinct glass beads and rings
displaying a rich and highly skilled mosaic effect.
The optical and sculptural effects available with glass
are endless. Simple, clean, durable, and highly polished,
glass possesses exquisite and unique characteristics
that set it apart from all other materials. Liquid is
proud to re-introduce tribal glass to the new generation.
Every piece of Liquid Glass Body Jewelry is crafted
and inspected to exacting standards. Constantly innovating
and developing new designs to encompass the entire range
of body piercing needs and tastes, Liquid is the forerunner
in the glass piercing industry.
