Medium / Technique Cast Glass, lost wax with Gold leaf
Hand grinding to a buff surface. This differs from sandblasting in the following ways:
   Every edge is defined rather than rounded
   The surface will not absorb oil from the hands
   Time consuming
The buffed surface results in a delicate satin like surface. Another elegant touch is the discrete application of gold leaf to an inner surface.
