The Sein Nagar Glass Factory, meaning Diamond Dragon, is a family business that has been in operation for over 15 years. Initially working with plastics, the founder began experimenting with glass and saw great potential in using discarded glass bottles bought from garbage collectors in Yangon. Those bottles get melted, blown into a mould and make each item a true recycled piece. The glass blowing skills are often handed down within families. This technique gives each piece its own unique quality which can not be matched by mass-produced glassware.
