Stampo libero

Letterally Free mould.
In this mold the glass is guided along predetermined directions, but left free to act independently.

This is a series of blades that mark the limit of expansion of the glass during blowing alternating with empty spaces in which the glass is free to move.
In this way, always new and always different pieces are obtained, even in a non-random programmed design structure.
