I've traveled to Czech republic many times to Karlsbad and Marienbad. I've purchased many Bohemian Crystal there and love the beer, food, culture and scenery. This was a well made, educational video.

This is why every time I see glass work in consignment shops I die a little inside because they are all a work of art. I can't stop collecting beautiful pieces of glass to create my own curtain. It's lavish and I've been buying pieces throughout my life and I hope to pass it down to my brother's child since I don't have a child myself.

I bought some crystal wine glass when I was in Slovenia. I loved them but now I appreciate how they where made. Thank you so much for this video.

Brings a new appreciation for the work these things take.

That was nice. Made me appreciate the work that goes into making cut crystal.

"This has been a most inspiring Video, to witness the amount of sheer effort and patience that skilled Artisans put into making ornate crystal Glasses, Vases, Chandeliers really does restore one's faith into mankind and their capabilities. My Thanks to Tom Bohemia Crystal for producing such an awe inspiring video". ~ Courtesy of Neville Bardoli

Beyond comprehension. Amazing! Thank you for filming your skill.

The best video so educational - so appreciated and yes, so inspiring ! Thank you !

Excellent video! Enjoyed watching it from beginning to end. Thank you for sharing.

Remember when Americans used to be proud of what their ancestors did, too? *sigh* Amazing work, you should be proud!

We are proud, the commies aren't.

Most amazing. The work involved with Crystal glass is much more then I had aforehand known. It is really quite mind blowing. Incredible pieces of handcrafted beauty. Was most assuredly worth watching.

Thank you for the video of this amazing process. I'm going back to Prague this year, having been there once last year and loved it, and want to see more about the glass. I do agree with a comment below about the music that is sometimes intrusive. Didn't notice the "t"s at all!

I am truly amazed at the process and final outcome. Simply Beautiful!!

RESPECT LEAD CRYSTAL. SO MUCH GOES INTO MAKING.

So beautiful!!!😍😍👍

God bless the hands of those whom make these

ART PIECES, WONDERFULL WORK !

What an excellent video, thank you!

This video is perfectly good, no complaints. I love all things Czech. This narrator’s pronunciation of the letter “t” is simply bizarre, though. I’ve never heart anything like it! It’s absolutely nuts. I had to log in just to comment.

Absolutely Amazing

great documentary! so much to learn.

Stunning artistry.

So many tedious steps, yet these people make it look effortless

Great work people... Splendid!

Beautiful work

This was a really Good video. Well Made.

Namaste!!!! It’s amazing! I wish to see more!!!

Just beautiful and amazing

Hi Michael, I found this nice video about Czech family owned glass factory, maybe you will be interested seeing this. At 18:08 outlining machine which I use and at 20:20 - about chemical polishing of all cut glass. Interesting. Hope you will like it.CheersJiri

AMAZING TOM CRYSTAL BOHEMIA LOVE IT !!!

QUE TRABALHO MANUAL EXTRAORDINÁRIO, NOSSA EU AMO CRISTAL DA BOHEMIA.

So beautiful!

Lots of beautiful things in this video, but none more so than the girl at 26:31. Wow.

Antigua maestria. Genial

Fantástico video, ya que para mí, que he sido restaurador de lámparas antiguas, es el cristal que más me gusta desde hace años, saludos

Amazing!

Fine video. Illuminating. The sound track was obtrusive at times... I personally would have chosen more subdued music. I would love to know how to make the gold enamel/paint.

Cool vid. Thx.

Me refiero al cristal de bohemia, que es el que más me gusta, y por su naturaleza de colores al ver la luz, saludos de nuevo

.... VERY INTERESTING... Special Talent Indeed 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🖖🥂 17:50

Marvelous!

You ever experiment on ways of removing bubbles? Loosening vacuum-effect, when pressing into molds? Maybe collander/wafer-molds? 🤷(for lampwork paperwieghts) or before drawing molten crystal out from furnace dose it with activated carbon?

Thank you, thank you :-)

Great film I am making a mainly moser glass theme museum here in ancient walled jerusalem and wish to partner with the Czech embassy here maybe we can talk and you can be involved how do we talk

how you make small crystal chandelier part .

Beautiful! No safety glasses?

7:30-7:42 that's hyperbaric-chamber type stuff, on the global-level, environmental-psionics. Air bubbles bad, unless it's the desired "effect"..

What is the gold solution she painted on then re annealed to turn it gold???

Very beautiful work, Bohemian glass is my favorite, but I always thought Bohemian glass was lead free, because of some other minerals they used to make it....

Let it sit with wine or citrus juice for a few years. Lead leaches less and less as used. Never let anything you will consume in it for more than a few hours, and you should be fine.

Well it is and it is not. The traditional way to make the crystal glass use lead to make it. Its suited better for decorative purposes because using lead in the process of making the glass allows for more precise cuts later when finishing the look. You can still use it for food and drinks just dont let it in it for a long time. The more modern method is lead free and thus is suited better for your "every day usage" as plates, glasses etc. Both methods achieve about equal quality the only difference is the traditional way makes the more suitable for artistic usage.

WOW!!!!

UM ESPETÁCULO…..👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

My parents had a TOM crystal chandelier, exactly like one shown. Now, I feel almost guilty for breaking it 25 years ago.

I looked up the price online, and my jaw dropped. Now, it probably costs more than a hundred times more than when Czechoslovakia was still around.

Anyone know if you can put lead crystal glasses in the freezer?

I would avoid doing this, as extremes of temperature, either hot or cold, can cause crystal to shatter. When washing crystal, only hand-wash in warm (not hot) water, again avoiding extremes of temperature. Rinse in warm water, not cold. I once had a precious Waterford bowl break because I washed in hot water, and as it dried it cracked when a cold air draft hit it.

Use lead crystal for serving, but not for storing edibles. It does leach small amounts of lead over time and if you regularly eat/drink food that has been sitting days in it, the lead exposure will eventually add up enough to matter.

2:54 That's some impressive cheek puff

14:05 that white stuff looks suspiciously Asbestos-like

The shit brown glass is amazing!!!!😁 💩 💩

Can't understand how these glass houses stay in business, granted yes the glass is beautiful but how much does anybody need I cant give away a baccarat vase on eBay for 50 bucks who is buying all this?

Here I was thinking wanted to improve my diction. I think I'll lay off the t's. Ugh. That with the pitch drop at the themes of phrases.... I'm turning on closed captioning and the volume down. I can't stand it.

Could the narration be more belittling to women?

It’s lead glass

Amazing!

👌👌👌
