A Little Love on the Side

This image shows a small perfume bottle created at the Isle of Wight glassmaking studio. The glass is blown and shaped, then blasted with an atmosphere of stannous chloride in a fume cupboard. The piece is then left to anneal in an oven which results in the iridescent 'glaze' on the glass due to the stannous chloride coating.

 

Shot as a focus stack of fourteen images for Macro Mondays theme 'Bottle(s)'.
