The art glass you see here is known

 as hand blown or lampworked glass.

 Each piece is individually hand sculpted in

 the torch flame, and then carefully annealed

 in a digitally controlled kiln. 

 

Some of the pieces have also been cold worked.

  This process involves cutting the flameworked

 glass on a diamond tipped wet saw, and then

polishing it on a lapidary wheel.

 

Precious metals of gold and silver are fumed

into some of the glass pieces while worked

 in the flame, and Gilson opals are also used

 as elements in the sculpting process.

 

 Various semi precious gems and crystals

are incorporated into the jewelry designs,

 along with pewter and sterling silver.
