Ice glass

Other technique of crackle art glass is the 16th–century Venetian technique of ice glass (called overshot glass in the United States). The hot glass was plunged into cold water to craze it. When reheated, it retained a finish like cracked ice. In London, Apsley Pellan marketed it as Anglo–Venetian glass.
