The thin-blowing process is a traditional method of glassmaking in which glass is blown into thin walls. The glassmaker must work with great precision to achieve an even wall thickness. This technique requires a great deal of experience and skill to ensure that the glass is thin enough to be light, yet strong enough to serve as a drinking glass. The result is a very light glass product that has a delicate appearance despite its stability.
