<p>[QUOTE=&quot;George Nesmith, post: 216467, member: 177&quot;]A better term is stained most authors will use ruby stained. It is another way of using a glass mold and extending its life. The glass is pressed and then copper sulfate is painted on the area to be colored and the item fired ie heated to set the color. Modern studio workers use a gas torch and call it flashing when they run the flame over the item to set the color. Collectors of EAPG era use flashing to refer to a thin layer of colored glass on a blown item. Search for a &quot;ruby stained vase&quot;.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
