Epic Optics: Hand Blown Glass Diamond-Pattern Tulip Goblet with Michael Schunke

- Expert glassblower Michael Schunke, (instagram: @thegobletninja) demonstrates how to create an exquisitely crafted handblown tulip-shaped goblet with textured diamond-pattern optics. Michael Schunke is co-founder and designer of Vetro Vero, the American hand-blown glass company based in PA.
Glassblowers of all levels can appreciate the degree of technical craftsmanship involved in this advanced glassworking visual tutorial. To create the finished goblet, the maestro blends Venetian and Murano glassblowing techniques with his own style: he shapes avolio bits, opens a blown foot, assembles multiple parts, and refines proportions as he works. Slow-motion close-up shots of significant actions include winding-on a bit, paddling an avolio, centering the stem, and attaching the cup bowl from the garage.
To support Michael Schunke’s belief that the best way to learn is through observation, we have left this video free of spoken instruction and commentary. Instead, Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata accompanies the glassblowing performance, and we welcome questions in the comment section. Classical music for a classical form… Enjoy!
Music:
Moonlight Sonata, Op. 27 No. 2 - I. Adagio sostenuto, perf. by Paul Pitman
Moonlight Sonata Op. 27 No. 2 - II. Allegretto, performed by Paul Pitman
Moonlight Sonata Op. 27 No. 2 - III. Presto, performed by Paul Pitman

I hope the world never gets to the point where this art is lost. Really amazing process and talent.
we'll do our best to continue teaching and sharing so glassblowing continues!
picking up the cup from the kiln so centered was athing of beauty
omg when the piano drops at 7:47 - i love it
every time I watch these I learn something new. This time I caught the guideline he put in prior to thr flash and trim. simple but excellent
Yes! Good eye.
Best video for avolios I've seen!
🙌
thank you!!
Josie’s trying to get the best shots!
Nice!! Great editing 😄

Thank you 🙏
Wow! Beautiful job on the goblet and the video guys.
Thank you!!
Thank you...
Beautiful ! Thanks for sharing.
I would have loved to see the finished goblet, though.
You make that look easy... Beautiful work!
So many years of practice. Thank you!
Really great footage! Thank you for the video. Those slow motion replays are really helpful!
Great! Thanks for watching & very glad it’s helpful to see the slow-motion replays.
You bet! I’m glad the replays are helpful - I’m trying to emphasize the moments we normally get the most questions about! Enjoy...
If you are a master of this technique and show this in a video then it seems as if everything is very obvious. This requires many years of experience and practice and a lot of specific knowledge of the different techniques to be able to do this. It is absolutely fantastic to see this excellent craftsmanship. Fabulous. You are the grandmaster.
We will provide more videos soon! Thank you for watching.
He makes it look so easy!!
Amazing, thank you! :)
Absolutely! Feel free to share with other goblet makers!
👍
THAT seal to the cup was DEAD CENTER! so many hot shop goblets are not nearly that clean, amazing work by a master
I can't imagine how long and how much skill it takes to create just one goblet!
Only about 30 years of practice...!
@@VetroVeroGlassblowingStudio I"m not surprised. It would take a lot of practice to make it look so simple!
I bet this guy is an amazing lover.
Totally.
Awesome 👍
This is so fascinating to watch. The skill is so impressive.👌
Wonderful. Thank you!
Thank you 🙏
He’s the best
I hope I can see a live demo someday.
We hope so too.
We’ll do some live streams on CZcams this summer.
a lot of skill and craftsmanship. I know these are a lot of work what does one sell for?

The Beethoven is perfect, and so is the goblet!
Can you tell me what the music was. I love watching this sort of thing, but the music made me shut my eyes and listen.
the music is Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. Such a moving and beautiful work of art. Thank you for watching and listening!
@@VetroVeroGlassblowingStudio Pretty terrible rendition of the 3rd movement, hope it was free!
So much work goes into the making of just one glass object that allot of the time it's such unappreciated work until you see the making of said product that is when you start appreciating things more.
Thanks for noticing!! It takes years to learn, and time to refine. Thank you.
Agreed!!
What color is the cup if I may ask?
have you ever gotten burned?
Lol, yes. But not so much anymore.
this glasswork just nothing like it.
thank you!
Incredible glassblowing skill however a very mediocre execution of the moonlight sonata.
Lol
thank you... we'll look for better recordings in the future!
