Glory holes are used to reheat during the process of glassblowing. Most glory holes are gas powered and run at about 2300 degrees Fahrenheit. Each glory hole has a set of doors on the front of it that can be opened to make the entrance wider. Chicago Hot Glass currently has four glory holes for rent. Three of them are sixteen inches wide, the fourth is twelve.
