Know more about Liuli arts (what anything else is better than this as an charm collectible gifts):
This figurine - statuette - sculpture is made Fine Liuli Crystal and is called Liuli Crystal Art.
"Liuli" is an ancient word for Chinese Crystal Art that was unknown to the rest of the world until China opened its doors.
The history of Liuli Crystal Art originated over 2000 years ago
during the Western Zhou Dynasty as well as in subsequent dynasties,
Liuli Crystal Art was only owned by the Royal Family and it was rarely
seen by ordinary people.
Because of how difficult it was (and still is) to make as well as
its high status significance, Liuli it was once considered more precious
than gold and jade... even today some consider it more precious that
gold or jade could ever be.
Liuli Crystal Art is created by using an ancient technique of Lost-Wax casting.
This process of making this type of Lost-Wax Glass Crystal is
extremely complicated as it requires over more than several dozen
procedures to make, many of them manual.
A precise temperature must be achieve, so firing the crystal
requires skill and an excellent technique to make Liuli Crystal Art.
The success rate of making one piece of Liuli Crystal Art is only
about 70%, which is why it makes it much more value than any other
crystal.
It is impossible to create two identical pieces this is due to the
coloring and air bubbles that are present in every individual piece of
Liuli Crystal.
Each piece of Liuli Glass Artwork is unique and beautiful.
The uniqueness and beauty comes from the light and shadow produced,
the flow of color that is formed during the firing process and Air
Bubbles (known as the Breath of Liuli) individual to each piece of
Liuli Crystal Art.
For the Buddhist amulet, I would put that this Buddhist Liuli Art
Amulet can be used for whatever you would like, from hanging from your
car mirror, to hanging on the wall or wearing it... it makes an
excellent gift.
PS: Do the bubbles in Liuli are inevitable?
1. The process of sintering is under 900 degrees, the bubbles is caused when the hot glass slurry like a lava flow slowly into the mold and the glass is very thick at the mean time, the bubbles can not easily expel out, so it is a normal phenomenon to have bubbles in it.
2. On the other hands, the small bubbles in the works can also
express some kind of design concept and the bubbles are the
characteristics of such works. Some foreign artist have said: "bubble is the breath of the glass".
