S.C. Vitrocolor International, S.R.L.

VITROCOLOR is a specialized company in producing decorative glass obtained following several traditional styles such as: E. GALLÉ, DAUM NANCY, MÜLLER. The first and at the same time the most important stage in realising these decorative objects is that of obtaining the white glass in a special oven. The next stage is represented by the hand blowing of the glass in several coloured layers. The models painted on the works are covered by tar in order to be protected when immersing them in an acid bath. The fluorhydric acid attaks the glass creating reliefs, nuances and light and shade effects thus appearing the final decoration. The next stage is that of removing the imperfetions through mecanic graving by polishing and finishing them. This whell graving allows the engraver to shape and polish the glass. The decorative works obtained in the GALLÉ style become valuable for their own form, material and decor. All these handcraft works are not made at random. They are the result of multiple experiances, of a precise work and are manufactured by extremely skillful craftmen.
