About Egyptian Museum

Egyptian Museum produces some of the most beautiful crystal-styled glass ornaments. Mouth blown in Egypt, the trained artists—usually using techniques passed down from generation to generation—mouth blow smooth Pyrex glass tubes over a fire. At this time the glass is etched, cut, and swirled before being painted with a luster or organic paint. The final steps are when the painter applies 24 kt gold to accent the piece before being baked in an oven with temperatures upward of 1,100 degrees Fahrenheit.
