Lampwork is a glassworking technique that involves melting glass rods with a flame to create intricate designs and shapes. Artisans use a torch to heat the glass until it becomes pliable, allowing them to shape it into beads, figurines, and other decorative items. This method dates back to ancient times and has evolved over the years. Lampwork artists often use various colors and types of glass, incorporating techniques like layering and twisting to enhance their creations. The final products are often used in jewelry, art pieces, and other crafts.
