An acid resist landscape was painted free-hand onto the vessel which was then etched by plunging into a hydrofluoric acid bath. The outer surface was then polished which gave the trees a ‘third dimension’ as the onlooker can see through the clear glass to the inner colour. Then the background was frosted, tricking the eye into thinking it is seeing coloured glass.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m_6788557335703491698gmail-s1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m_6788557335703491698gmail-s1\"\u003eThree types of enamel were painted by the artist to complete the design: transparent enamel for the three dimensional trees, opaque enamel for the snow or the ground and a polychrome enamel for the details in the distance which could be hills or trees. Finally the piece was reintroduced to the heat to anneal the enamels with the base glass.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m_6788557335703491698gmail-s1\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m_6788557335703491698gmail-s2\"\u003eSome very rare examples such as the ‘Deep Winter’ design had an additional and more complicated process of applying a layer of cameo glass to the outer body before painting the acid resist.
