About LiuLi Glass
The creation of Chinese Liuli Jewelry is different from the processes for most modern day glass. For tableware or jewelry, glass blowing is favored since one re-useable mold can be employed. Liuli creation uses a type of kiln casting method sometimes referred to as a ?lost-wax? technique that uses finely powdered glass mixed with a binding substance, colorants, and lead. Depending on the mold used, solid or semi-hollow shapes are achievable.

The Beginnings of LiuLi Glass
Archaeological evidence suggests that Liuli was being made and used some 2500-1500 years ago, most likely around the Tang Dynasty era. In its earliest form, Liuli may have served as decorative tiles used in the construction of beautifully designed roofs for nobles and the wealthy commonly seen in ancient Chinese architecture. Eventually, Liuli was likely incorporated into stand alone artwork pieces and further modified into wearable form. It?s not surprising that an art form like Liuli could evolve into so many areas during this period, as the Tang Dynasty was an era that saw a proliferation of art and culture with numerous art forms reaching their apex.
