I'm taking my first glass class next year at an art uni and just can't decide between cast making and glass blowing- they both are so intriguing and captivating. This is gorgeous.
I did this back in 1967, in Decatur Texas before I was drafted in 1970. I made some beautiful beer mugs with swirling colors as well as animals and fish. I was the only white person among many Mexicans that the owner would bring over from Mexico.
@@kookievidz heck yes this specially working inside a metal only building with no insulation in the summertime no AC or fans and 3 Moten furnaces running as well as secondary tempering ovens. Not only that but during the mixing process it was highly dangerous as many of the mixtures required arsenic and was often floating around in the air around the mixer for anyone to breathe. I tried not to breathe anymore than I had to in that area as well as washing off as much dust as possible. But it was all worth it when you could see a good finish product go out the door or even make something for yourself in your own time to keep or give to friends and family.
Thank you for this video! My 5th grade class just read a story about glass blowing (not having a clue what it was), and we were fortunate to find this right away. They were very intrigued!
Very cool! I just signed up for an introduction to glass blowing class and I was trying to get an idea of what to expect. Thanks for showing some of the basics!
I wish high schools teach this so that we can all experience the production making, by doing so we not only appreciate the glassblower community and their hardwork done but also give more exposure to kids and let them explore art and skills.. but of course at the same time, the heat, fire, and everything else is dangerous.. and expensive stuff.
@@Mike_Hughes agreed. Sometimes the more we contained them, the crazier it gets when they’re out there. This kind of exposure teach them how to make good choices
It’s such a sweet dance.............. I remember wen I was going to massage school n the instructor stressed how important it was to not “break contact”, or when you did to make the transition as smoooth as possible! And it certainly was a very valuable lesson because that for me,definitely makes or breaks a good massage.This Glass blowing dance reminded me of that........ it’s soooooo flowey...... a beautiful work of art❤️
very helpful. I m trying to make headlights, taillights, car windows, domestic windows, side mirrors, rearview mirrors etc. I found this quite helpful.
Terrific video! Charlotte looks amazing while creating the art. I’ve seen many Glass artists in jeans and t-shirts with safety glasses. She just chose to wear a killer dress. Just as safe as the others. How did you miss the beautiful work of art and focus only on what she was wearing or the name of the equipment. Grow up guys. Keep doing you Charlotte!
Great work. Well made video. Pity about the silly music spoiling the effect. Also amazing is the lack of comments on the music. I read almost 60 comments and only 2 people mentioned the difficulty hearing the commentary.
+MarkNiceyard It's both funny and sad, glory hole was the name for the heating furnace long before the euphemism yet no one has a clue what glass blowing is anymore.
She's wearing loose fitting clothing, her legs are exposed, no gloves and shoes that don't protect her whole feet. And she's handling hot molten glass. And she's teaching a class. She maybe an expert, but I've seen and heard too many incidents to know that this is a s recipe for disaster. She should know better.
+Ishan Shrivastava As long as your not reckless with it, it's actually pretty safe. You should look up the videos of Indian glass factory workers doing way more complicated stuff shirtless and barefooted.
Gloves? Who wears gloves? And is it her dress that much different from wearing shorts, which blowers do all the time. It's what she was wearing that day in the office. You try blowing when its a 90 degree day and 85% humidity
I want to be a glass blower too, But I need to finish my bachelor degree ahahh and I get this. You know what? This is make you more lively than office :>
I feel like you should wear gloves when you do this but this lady is a professional so what do I know lol. Very interesting art I would love to try it myself.
What really blows my mind is how the hell do they make the same design many times over The art is amazing enough if each piece was just the one,but to make the same piece over and over HOW? IE has anyone ever saw the Ryan Fitt glass pieces.He has 2 now Blows my wee mind
I'm impressed that she can withstand the heat from the pipe. Even though it's cooler on one end (the part she's holding). I say all this because normally you see grown bulky men, or just scrawny dudes, wearing furnace mitts because they can't stand the touch of the intense heat. Also due to their grip of the pipes. The sweat causing things to get slippery. Haha
note to producer: background music shouldn't be louder than the speaker
100% in agreement with you !
That’s all to often in these videos,n I dig music :)
Is that all you learned from this video?!
audio in videos is my biggest beef
@@ramaanplayz2901 pretty much...
Wow. I am impressed. I would love to learn this art.

Hey its been 9 years i wonder how are you doing right now, would love to know if you are comfortable with it
@@gunjitkumar Same, im wondering that too
I love see the Glass DIVA Charlotte Potter work! Beautiful Diva and fantastic art!!! Kisses from Brazil

From where?
In Lahore?
@@aleenashafique7019 No, at the time this was at a small shop on the West Coast. It was cool, I made a little pumpkin paperweight.
@@vero0992 cool 👍🏻👍🏻

Kids should be exposed to more dangerous stuff, anyway... The ridiculous 'Health & Safety' mob have all but destroyed childhood!

This sounds like a dream job for you then... What a combination! - You could combine the Massage with the Blowing!
This video has created a respect for glass art pc. manufacturers in my heart. I never knew it involved so much of skill.
What genius decided we needed to have music louder than the narration in a video intended to describe the various steps of glassblowing?
Beautiful art created by a stunning woman!
SOOOO SPECTACULAR!!! LOVES THE SMALL INTRO TO BLOWING GLASS CLASS.
Fantastic and informative! Well shot, explained in an easy to understand way, and top notch skills demonstrated!
I only did this a couple times, but I really want to do it again. Great video !
I wish I could do that for a living, it's mesmerizing. I could make my own cups and plates
BONGS DONT FORGET BONGS
420 forever
💯
We're all here to learn how to make a cool bong
😂 LoL 😅
420 blazing
Magnifique et beaucoup de courage et de savoir faire ❤
very helpful. I m trying to make headlights, taillights, car windows, domestic windows, side mirrors, rearview mirrors etc. I found this quite helpful.
Thx Charlotte I enjoyed watching you work the glass
Great to see the process. 'Marver ' is a new word to me . This knowledge could help me win in Who Wants To Be A Millionaire!
Compliments ! by a colleague overseas .. Greetings from Murano - Venice (italy)
this was informative
*collage (if that was what you were saying :3)
In modern times, we have stoners and non-stoners alike make bongs and pipes
Amazing video and amazing channel and amazing job friend 😀😎🔥👍❤
I am reading full tilt by emma scott and this video was really helpful for me to understand the book
Pity about the loud music masking most of the informative dialogue. Love the glass blowing demo.
Great short demo. Thank you for posting.
Terrific video! Charlotte looks amazing while creating the art. I’ve seen many Glass artists in jeans and t-shirts with safety glasses. She just chose to wear a killer dress. Just as safe as the others. How did you miss the beautiful work of art and focus only on what she was wearing or the name of the equipment. Grow up guys. Keep doing you Charlotte!
Not really as safe as wearing jeans and long sleeves. You only need one trip and you drop hot glass on your skin.
She looks silly for not wearing proper clothing.
Ok I want to try it now that is way cool
Wow! Amazing! Just Incredible. Love the demo!
The beloved art appreciated at all tourist zones
I like the art of making glass.
A really amazing process !!!
😂😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏Good job for a woman in a dress moving around and adding that heat and the glass work was awesome
So what your saying is you expect less from women?
@@justinkyledavidson oh my god STOP!!!!
It looks interesting, but the music is so loud that I cannot understand what the narrator is saying.
Three creative babes in a warm facility with strong lips and talent. That's, like, my fantasy.
Okay
Wow this is amazing
Great work. Well made video. Pity about the silly music spoiling the effect. Also amazing is the lack of comments on the music. I read almost 60 comments and only 2 people mentioned the difficulty hearing the commentary.
Quite!! - Despite repeatedly listening, I STILL can't work out what she is saying! - especially the last line...
This is beautiful! And so fun
Loved this video--thanks for sharing!
That’s beautiful, amazing stuff.
Fantastic.I would love to learn this art.
I would love to earn that tart
Tried my hand at glass-blowing recently. Definitely going to continue learning how to do it!
I tried my Hand at the Glory Hole.
Beautiful art 🎨
3:13 Mark.. Is SO SO TRUE!!! My life has changed completely..
What stops the 1200+ degree air from blowing back up the pip and burning your lungs? Is there a valve or something in there.?
Bellissima questa arte🌹
M incanta!!
Mi ricorda
la tanto amata Venezia e Murano
un abbraccio dalla provincia di bg.🇮🇹( w l arte della 🎨 )
love the way shes wearing a dress and heals classy
Never thought to associate the words blowing and glory hole with crafting glass shapes.
Wow that was awesome loved it thank you
Beautiful! Very interesting, thanks!
I love the Music!
Glory hole?!?
MarkNiceyard LMFAO :DDD
MarkNiceyard as soon as i saw that in the video i scrolled down to see the comments
MarkNiceyard It's the heating chamber... it just makes it worse!
+MarkNiceyard
It's both funny and sad, glory hole was the name for the heating furnace long before the euphemism yet no one has a clue what glass blowing is anymore.
+MarkNiceyard Well you have to blow the pipe once it comes out of the glory hole...
THE MUSIC IS TOO LOUD, CAN'T HEAR THE NARRATION
get your ears cleaned
its amazing this world wide mania : even in a lecture on philosophy we are condemned to hear music -- usually bad music .
Did you try turning it on and back off again?
I agree it is a little intrusive. I try to avoid that in my videos. But I DO need to get my ears cleaned lol!
yea dumbass
Cool! Maybe when I grow up I might try this.
Nice work clothes. What do you wear when you go out for a night on the town?
I can smell the neckbeard.
It's simply unsafe is all. As are shorts and open toed shoes.
Saftey first!
That said, I seriously doubt this is her regular glass-blowing attire.
gotta look pretty for the camera, man.
Beautiful and the glass looking good As well. So glad I found you.
So a dress is safety work cloths?
Very interesting video, thank you for this
That is why you are so happy and healthy !
All must relish this video! Keep it up
She's wearing loose fitting clothing, her legs are exposed, no gloves and shoes that don't protect her whole feet. And she's handling hot molten glass. And she's teaching a class.

But I wants Attention.. REEEEE
I so agree with your statement.
Gloves? Who wears gloves? And is it her dress that much different from wearing shorts, which blowers do all the time. It's what she was wearing that day in the office. You try blowing when its a 90 degree day and 85% humidity
honestly i was just thinking that. like shes wearing a dress just chillen?
The handrails outside are sick. I’m tryna skate those
Very nice work. I want to try this sometime.
I want to be a glass blower too, But I need to finish my bachelor degree ahahh and I get this. You know what? This is make you more lively than office :>
So satisfying
Wonderful Theme Song!!!
It would be cool to see Superman doing this stuff with his bare hands.
What is the title of music running at the beginning?
I am 17 years old and I know this completely
Omg I love it!
She did this shit with ease…… ppl got steel toes boots on work pants on…… she came down out the office does everything in dress and some Sandals
i think i just found my fav video on youtube
Can we talk about these outfits? Love it all
I feel like you should wear gloves when you do this but this lady is a professional so what do I know lol. Very interesting art I would love to try it myself.
She should have a lot more protection, she's going with fashion over function. Not smart.
$20,000 dollars later, Dad asks what did you learn?
*Hands dad clump of glass*
It's a paper weight
Go to school and learn that save 20000 dollars.
Be careful fellas, this isn’t the glory hole you’re thinking of. Trust me, I learned the hard way.
just wanted to see it
wow... amazing.. cool... i dont know what words but... MUST SUBSCRIBE
ALMOST A MILLION VIEWS!
For some reason, and I cant possibly imagine what that is, I feel like it's a bad idea playing with molten glass in dresses and short shorts
this is beautiful
What really blows my mind is how the hell do they make the same design many times over
The art is amazing enough if each piece was just the one,but to make the same piece over and over
HOW?
IE has anyone ever saw the Ryan Fitt glass pieces.He has 2 now
Blows my wee mind
I'm impressed that she can withstand the heat from the pipe. Even though it's cooler on one end (the part she's holding). I say all this because normally you see grown bulky men, or just scrawny dudes, wearing furnace mitts because they can't stand the touch of the intense heat. Also due to their grip of the pipes.

no big deal. thr pipe gets drenched with cold water and the heat tends to not to move.
@@stevenboyd8738 interesting. Thanks for the information
I wish I could afford taking this up
what is price of paper weight commercial this glass work afford ? A. M.ZAVERI
What happens if someone accidentally sucks instead of blowing hot glas?😢
Just came here to see how this art works to learn about a condition called “Laryngocele”which commonly affects them.
Excellent Video
I wonder if you can do the same thing but roll it into a flat piece and use it as "stained glass"?
The one job you hope you blow at but not suck at.
wow this art is amazing!!
She did it in a dress and looked damn fine doing so
Awesome, thank you for sharing!!! One question: can you accidentally blow it so hard that the molten glass explodes?
I love how women are being so empowered these days!
nice safety gear....
Did anyone mention that the background music is way too loud? Can't hear what she's saying....
i'm so amazed this glass.... i really want to try this but it looks hard . :(
I'm scared of touching the heat.
+Gabby P. Try to always focus on the passion, rather than fear, when you want to try new things!
Matrix Unravelling thanks for telling that. :D :D :D :D
thats cool. my mother was wanting to do that
Paperweights! Liked, shared and subscribed. :)
