To encourage vaccination - and show that the virus can be disarmed easily we created JEWELRY-19. First jewelry line made by a glassblower who contains COVID-19 positive.

The Capture Of COVID-19.

We used a technique that lets us clearly see inflated air bubbles. Every glass piece needed long processing and polishing to make the 'virus inside' visible. To create the piece, a rather long object with a longitudinal air cavity inside was blown, additionally using a special powder that causes a certain reaction "bubbling" while the glass is still very hot.   ____  The project was recognized by the Lithuanian design association as top 3 in the jewelry category.  █
