Questions About Controlled Bubble Glass
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Controlled bubble glass, also known as Bolle or Bullicante, is glass that’s embedded with bubbles. Particularly popular during the 1950s among Murano glass artists, the bubbles are typically created by rolling the molten glass on a metal surface covered in sharp spikes, poking holes that are then covered with another layer of glass, trapping air in the holes. On 1stDibs, find a selection of Controlled bubble glass pieces.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    The Italian term "bullicante" refers to glass that has a deliberate and regular pattern of bubbles inside. It's just one of the many techniques associated with fine Italian glassmaking. On 1stDibs, you'll find a collection of antique and contemporary bubble glass or bullicante from some of the world's top sellers.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    Glass with bubbles in it is called bubble glass or in Italian, the term is pulegoso. Some bubbles appear in glass because the techniques were not good and bubbles remain, but other bubbles were put there by the glass-maker. Adding bubbles to glass can be very intentional and there are many tools designed to help glass-makers create elaborate and symmetrical patterns. On 1stDibs, find a variety of original glass art from top artists.
