Hand Blown Glass Blue Icicle Ornament

Measuring an impressive 7″ long, the Egyptian Museum’s Hand-Blown Glass Blue Icicle Ornament is an epitome of refined artistry and tradition.

For over two decades, the distinctiveness of Egyptian Museum glass has been celebrated, setting it apart from any other contemporary glassware. Drawing inspiration from the 19th century when the age-old art of glassblowing was reinvigorated, this ornament is a result of cherished techniques passed predominantly from father to son.

These male artisans, despite the intense conditions and potential risks associated with the craft, have preserved this art in a domain where female participation is rare. The deep blue of the icicle doesn’t just add aesthetic value; it encapsulates centuries of Egyptian crafting history.
