color changing glass
ccg (as it’s known) is made by small pieces of metal (usually silver and/or gold) that are held in the flame of the torch until vaporized (often called ‘fuming’). the gl-ss is rotated in this vapor stream until a fine layer of the vaporized metal is visible on the surface of the gl-ss.
after this, clear gl-ss is applied (often in ‘dots’ and ‘lines’) to ‘encase’ the vaporized metal in between layers of gl-ss. there are many techniques and methods of applying the fumes and clear gl-ss making a myriad of different colors, and endless types of patterns that one can come up with. the colors produced with fumed metals are best when they are translucent, vibrant, and reflective. as the pipe darkens with use, the colors (many barely visible) become darker and much more conspicuous, thus causing the appearance of much richer ‘color change’ (the gl-ss itself doesn’t actually change colors though).
color changing gl-ss is used in a variety of products such as gl-ss vases, oil lamp bases, perfume bottles, containers, smoking accessories, and so forth.
special kind of of gl-ss used in making various smoking utensils. like the name implies, it changes color as you smoke out of the utensil.
