A novelty made by Hobbs-Brockunier in Wheeling, Virginia, from 1883. A spangled effect was created by rolling a parison of glass in mica flakes and broken glass, the redipped for final blowing and shaping. Another technique was to roll a parison of glass in spangle dust and blowing it without redipping.
