<p>[QUOTE="NewEngland, post: 13172262, member: 6071"]I asked google to describe the process used to make the fu lion and it said that the glass artisan, after he was finished carving the clear glass figure, dipped the clear glass into molten white glass then dipped in red and when they dried, he carved into the colors, exposing the white beneath the red. It was an advanced glass making process introduced to the Chinese in the early 1700s, brought to China by European Jesuit missionaries.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
