How We Make Our York Lucky Cats

Our York Lucky Cats are made in Lampworking method. They are designed in York, inspired by York's cat statues and made locally by glass artists. It is a type of glasswork that uses a torch to melt and shape glass. Once the glass rod is heated to around 1500 Celsius degree to a molten state, it is formed by shaping with tools and hand movements to create a cat or any other creature.
