Lampworking Glasswork is where a torch or lamp melts the glass. Once the glass has melted, it is formed using tools and hand movements. Because it no longer uses oil-fueled lamps, it is sometimes called flameworking and torchworking. It is difficult to know when lampworking was first developed. However, it is possible to identify the origin of lampworking from a collection made of beads in . Murano and Italy were the first to practice the technique. Itinerant glassworkers began to demonstrate lampworking as early as 17th-century. [2] By the middle of the 19th century, lampworking was expanded to produce paperweights. This technique is still popular today. In contrast to glassblowing, lampworking uses a furnace for primary heat. However, torches can also be used.
Lampworking began in an oil lamp. The artist would blow air into the flame using a pipe or foot-powered bellows. Hobbyists often use MAPP gas in portable containers for fuel, while others use oxygen concentrators to provide continuous oxygen.
Lampworking can be used to create art, such as beads, ornaments for Christmas trees, marbles and small vessels. It can also be used to make scientific instruments and glass models of animals and botanical subjects.
