Peking glass is an overlay carved glass which created by layering materials around the core, similar to cameo glass.
To create the overlay, a glass blower makes the shape, dips the shape into a basin of liquid glass several times. This process creates multiple layers of glass that are then hand carved away to produce a textured image.
Milky color is the base, then orange glass overlay on it to form a 3D image of the orange flowers and sparrow handcrafted in detail, beautiful collection piece for all the collectors.
