Enjoy the beauty of the seashore in your own home! Each of Laserglass Arts inner glow collection shells is comprised of 45% leaded crystal, compared to the 38% component found in Austrian Crystal. The crystal shells are molded from actual seashells and exhibit all the fine detailing of nature's originals. The shells are individually hand cast using Laserglass' own adaptation of a casting method originally developed by the ancient Egyptians to make gold jewelry. The use of the more expensive 45% leaded crystal enables the artists to capture such definition.
The shells contain a specialized dichroic coating which gives them their unique inner glow. Dichroically coasted glass is an excitingly different material first developed to provide superior reflectivity to mirrors in industrial laser applications. It is manufactured by evaporating extremely thin layers of metallic oxides, in precise thickness, onto glass in a carefully controlled vacuum. The artistic combination of natural shapes and optical coatings characterize Laserglass shells.
