1. How to take care of Liuli products?

(1) Prevent contact with other objects to avoid scratches.

(2) Keep at a constant temperature avoiding sudden temperature changes. Avoid partial heating or cooling.

(3) If placement surface is slippery, a mat, or piece of cloth may be useful.

(4) To keep surface clear and shiny, wipe with a dry cloth. Please do not use soap or detergent. 

 

2. Why are there bubbles in the products? Can they be avoided?

 

The lost wax casting process uses a high temperature, but lower than the temperature used in producing white crystal.  As a result, when the liquid glass flows into the plaster mold, bubbles in between the colored glass pieces cannot always escape.  Therefore, it is quite normal to have bubbles inside Liuli artworks. And of course, artists can take advantage of the effects as a form of artistic expression as well.

 

3. Why are there great color variations in the same kind of artworks?

 

This is the special effect of  the de-wax casting process. Every piece of artwork is hand-made. When it is put into the kiln, different colors mix naturally, resulting in each piece having nuances of color.

 

4.  Is it necessary to use lighting?

 

Because of the material in Liuli, the product shows best under ideal lighting conditions.  However, lighting is not necessary for all pieces or situations.
