Abstract:
Provided herein are novel tools and methods for the formation of vessels having sculpted interior and exterior forms. Novel high-temperature non-woven textile forms may be used to create a glass vessel having a three-dimensional sculpted interior of almost any shape. The non-woven textile forms may also be used as molds to artfully sculpt bottle exteriors. The invention allows for unprecedented control over the form of glass objects in an industrially scalable process.
