How it's made
Step 1
RAW MATERIAL
Big, high quality, crystal bars are cut up into perfect cubes using diamond cutting blades.
Step 2
HEATING
The cubes are placed on a heat resistant conveyer belt that runs through an oven, gradually heating them up to a temperature of 1600 °C (3000 °F). This makes the cubes soft and slightly mouldable.
Step 3
MOULDING
One by one the heated cubes are pressed to their round shape using a big hydraulic mould press.
Step 4
COOLING
To avoid imperfections and bubbles, the crystal balls are very gradually brought down to room temperature (20 °C (70 °F)).
Step 5
POLISHING
Multiple polishing steps create a flawless surface. At the end of these steps the balls are perfectly round, but still have a matte white finish.
Step 6
FINISHING
Two disks with a fine polishing surface spin at high speed with the crystal balls in-between. After 40 minutes in this machine, they are completely transparent.
Step 7
INSPECTION
Every ball is extensively inspected for imperfections. Only one out of four pass this test, the others get recycled and start again at step one.
