  • This video begins with the making of the different canes and bands required. After these elements are rolled up on the end of a blowpipe, the open-ended cylinder is lined with colorless glass using the sbruffo method. Glassblowing is then employed to make the vessel. The handle is fashioned from excess canes left on the end of the blowpipe. Learn more about this object in The Techniques of Renaissance Venetian-Style Glassworking by William Gudenrath renvenetiansty...
    Between about 1500 and 1725, Venice was nearly the sole supplier of fine luxury glass to the royal and aristocratic, the wealthy and powerful, throughout Europe. The Venetian government went to extreme measures to protect its lucrative and prestigious monopoly by isolating the highly skilled workers on the nearby island of Murano and severely restricting their movements. However, with the promise of personal freedom and the hope of fortune, they gradually fled the lagoon to set up workshops in a variety of locations on the Continent and in England.
    The Techniques of Renaissance Venetian-Style Glassworking - renvenetiansty... - presents detailed 360° photography and high-definition video related to objects from nine glassworking centers influenced by Venetian style as researched by master glassmaker and scholar William Gudenrath.
    The resource is a follow-up to Gudenrath's popular Techniques of Renaissance Venetian Glassworking (2016) also available free online at renvenetian.cm....

    After having watched the entire hour long video William did on the plate uploaded just the other day, this was perfectly short. I had a base of knowledge and everything made sense. Fantastic work

    That turquoise looks like an excellent pedagogical tool for beginners. There's nothing quite like heat you can see.

    I love seeing this artform in action, a dance with hot glass and skillful manipulation. What a miserable medium to have to finagle into shape, but what a beautiful result.

    At about 9:30, the vessel is too perfect for the frame rate of the video. Is that a 60-stripes-per second rotation?

    Beautiful as always Bill
    I've been blowing for two years soon (approx 370h) I work alone a lot and want to advance in my craft faster, do you have any good tips for a solo worker wanting to do advanced techniques? I find it hard to add blown stems and feet in time, either the body cracks or I get an un even bubble. :/
    Love your vids I've learned so much from them :)
    By the way do you know Reino Björk?

      Hi, Bill says, "The best advice I can give is to pause the videos on the long-shots to see how I set-up my working space. Having all furniture, tools, etc. in exactly the same place all of the time and carefully ‘choreographing’ each procedure (like making and attaching a blown-stem, for example) and closely adhering to it all of the time really helps.
      There are a few things that I don’t do alone; I can do them alone, but it’s too awkward and uncontrollable. Incalmo; and making, for example, a goblet entirely from one cane pick-up (then distributing it to multiple blowpipes: one for the cup, one for the stem, one for a knop, etc.). If it feels awkward and precarious, I don’t do it solo. Yes! Reino was a good friend-one of my favorite people-in NYC in the 80’s. He and Naz (his wife) moved back to Sweden quite a few years ago. I saw him a couple of years ago in Stockholm: his work is better than ever.
      " Thanks for watching!

      @@corningmuseumofglass cool thanks for the tips! I manage to pull it of last time I just need to cut down on time, it really helped by just having a extra pair of Jack's by the marver and mould to make a quick cut after blowing the bouble. The few seconds I saved made all the difference. All I've learned so far is due to watching your videos and practicing by my self. I hope I get to meet you in person some day, I've heard a lot of stories of you and you seem to be an amazing person Bill. Thank you and thanks to all the people at Corning for making these videos they are very helpful and inspiring.

      @Kranchman: I didn't start making progress until I was able to do it a couple hours every week (renting time in a local hotshop). Doing it once every 6 - 9 months I had to re-learn the same thing every time. Taking classes is a good way to see how other people work. Not everyone does it the same, and some people do it distinctly different.

    I don't understand why you don't show the finished item in all its glory. Seems crazy not to do that, given you spend 9 minutes showing how it is made. Then we can compare it with the original tankard.

      It's because there are other videos about the making of the metal bits on it.
