In 50 BC, a mysterious arson occurred in the Roman Senate. Historians found clues in the fragments: At that time, nobles were popular with
“fire crystals” to focus sunlight to ignite the sacred fire. A piece of pure Roman crystal could ignite olive oil in 30 seconds under the midday sun – this may be the world’s earliest “optical weapon”.
Crystal engraving: the magic of light and shadow
The principle of crystal engraving is actually a wonderful encounter between light and matter.
It uses special laser technology. The laser of a certain wavelength is shot into the crystal causes tiny bursts in specific areas of the interior to form bubbles. This will outline the preset shape. These tiny bubbles are arranged in groups within the crystal.
It forms a beautiful pattern as in the picture:
Key points for material selection
1. Crystal material: Artificial crystal is the main material for crystal inner carving, because of its high transparency and uniformity, it can better show the details of the inner carving pattern. K9 crystal is of high quality and is the best choice for making high-quality inner carving works.
2. Glass material: Glass has low cost, relatively low transparency and hardness. Ordinary glass is suitable for making simple interior carvings, while tempered glass has higher strength and safety.
3. Acrylic material: Acrylic is transparent, has good processing performance, has unique internal carving effect, and has excellent texture and gloss. It is often used to make personalized decorations, gifts, etc.
Crystal inner carving is widely used in crafts, gifts, decorations and other fields
Through laser engraving technology, various exquisite patterns can be engraved inside materials such as crystal and glass. Crystal inner carving works not only have unique artistic value, but also have high collection value.
In 2025, with the continuous advancement of laser technology. The application scenarios of crystal engraving will be further expanded. Such as consumer electronics, new energy, environmental protection and other fields
