What is "glassblowing"?
Glassblowing is a technique for shaping molten glass into various forms using a blowpipe and other tools. The process starts by melting glass in a furnace until it becomes a liquid. The glass is then gathered on the end of a blowpipe, and air is blown into it to expand and shape the glass. By rotating and manipulating the glass while blowing, artists can create objects like vases, bottles, and sculptures. The glass is then cooled slowly in a kiln to solidify into its final form.
