Cactus Blown Glass Factory in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico
January 2017 we watched a glass demonstration where a glass worker made a beautiful piece of art work right in front of us. They said the glass got up to 1500 C, at the very end of the clip our tour guide touched the glass with a piece of news paper and it caught on fire.

Blown Glass Factory - Los Cabos
Glass has been hand blown by almost every culture since ancient times. Cabo San Lucas is home to what was for many years the only glass factory on the Baja peninsula.
Watching the artesans blow glass is mesmerizing, the technique fascinating. Go before 2p.m., while the taller (shop) is humming with activity. Most tour agencies offer escorted visits to the Glass Factory with a bilingual guide, or you can take a taxi and run on your own time. There's a shop on-site for purchasing glassware, figurines, plates and bowls; and special orders are welcome.

Blown glass in México
Glass work dates back to some 5000 years ago in Egypt. Since it is a very fragile material, it is rare to find ancient specimens, even though ancient pieces have been discovered in tombs. Glass can be found in nature but can also be manufactured by humans, in general, glass parts that we can acquire today are made from silica sand.
Blown glass is a technique for manufacturing glass pieces, which are obtained by injecting air into the glass at high temperatures, thus creating bubbles that are cut and molded with different tools to give them a specific shape. Glass parts of practical use are manufactured like glasses, cups, jugs or even pieces for decorative purposes such as sculptures or jewelery.
The creation of blown glass pieces is a delicate process and requires some preparation and patience. In Mexico we can find many artisans dedicated to the creation of products with this technique, places like Tonalá or Tlaquepaque, in Jalisco, are characteristic to host this type of art, Mexican glass is of excellent quality due to its material and the process of creation.
