The Art of Making Glass

 

The production process of all original Lamberts glasses begins with the mixing of the glass batch. Quartz sand, soda and lime are the most important basic ingredients. Colors are determined through the addition of metal compounds such as iron, copper, silver and even gold.

The variety

The Lamberts palette of glasses offers more than 5000 varieties to choose from.
The actual process of glass making begins after the batch has melted and reached approximately 1450 C. Depending on the final product, the glowing pot of glass will be blown into large balloon shapes, formed into small round pieces or cast and rolled on a special table.
