Blown glass: is a type of glass made by hand using a blowing iron. It is often used for making bowls, vases, and other decorative glassware. Blown glass is labor-intensive because it requires the glassblower to have a great deal of skill and experience. How can you tell if glass is blown: The first clue that a piece of glassware is handmade will be a small “navel,” or circular point at its base. This is where the glass was cut from the blowing tube, indicating that it is in fact handblown.

Chamvin glass: The whisky glass is made using the traditional Edo Kiriko technique and features a "Chamvin" shape on its body. The "crumple" pattern is a specific design that features a wrinkled or creased appearance on the body of the glass.
