When I developed the basic shape I designed its decorative style with the help and advice of high quality and experienced glassmakers. I focused on chosing decorations which are flexible and can be easily modified. An optical decorative style is heavily used. The decoration can simply be two or more lines. In this case, the ornamental details look very clean and simple – just as I intended.
