Spectrum - Baroque (Reamy)

This attractive glass from Spectrum Glass Company resembles Reamy Antique Glass, an expensive imported product that is blown in the shape of a cylinder, split, and then flattened in an annealing oven.

It also resembles English Streaky Glass. We are indebted to our English friends for many, many things, one of which is English Streaky Glass. While we are snugly asleep in our little beds, they are over there busily engaged in making streaky glass for us to play with.

The English seem to be the most adept at producing streaky glass. One theory has it that they always have bad head colds, which affects their glass blowing. This is racist talk.

Should you prefer, Reamy, or Streaky Glass can be made right in your own kitchen. First you need two large vats of molten glass whose temperature is around 2200F degrees. You dip your apprentice-type blow-pipe into the first vat and pick up two cups of colored glass on the end of it, being careful not do drop any of it on the cat or the Avon Lady, or anyone else who happens to be scampering about on your kitchen floor. Next you dip this blob into vat #2, which has the secondary color. Then twirl and blow, (or blow and twirl) until you have a nice 12" diameter cylinder perhaps 3 feet long. Then you take it across the street to the nice man with the asbestos gloves who somehow (don't ask us how) makes it into flat antique streaky glass.

Available in 8" x 12" or 12" x 16".
