THE HANDMADE PROCESS
Each glass pumpkin is carefully handcrafted, making them all unique in color and shape. Pumpkins start out as a hot blob of glass, gathered off a pipe from a 2,200 degree furnace. The glassblower blows into the pipe to trap a bubble. Pumpkin ridges are added by mold. The glassblower blows again to form the pumpkin base. A metallic glass stem is added to the top. Next, they “cool” overnight in a 900 degree oven. And just like that, a pumpkin is born.
