Providing a friendly forum for the exchange of information about Carnival Glass. Generally, Carnival Glass is press moulded glass that was often hand finished to create different shapes. The glass is formed by being pressed into a mould while in a hot molten state. As it cools, it takes on the shape and detail of the mould. Once removed from the mould and while still relatively hot, it is sprayed with metallic salts which gives it the ‘oil-on-water’ multicolor iridescent appearance.
