Craft production has been used since Roman times through the Victorian era to create cranberry glass, as the high cost of gold requires careful use. The process involves creating gold chloride through the dissolution of gold in nitric acid and hydrochloric acid (aqua regia), followed by glass blowing or molding. The resulting hardened glass is a type of colloid with a dispersed solid phase of gold within a solid phase of glass.
