With the art of glass blowing, is it possible to blow a bauble around a 2-to-6 inch tall figurine?
And if it is, I would like to find someone willing to do so and ship to the US west coast. :)

What’s the figurine made out of?

I haven't settled yet, figured I'd decide based on any limitations noted by the crafter

Just asking because if it's not some kind of metal (and something tougher than pewter), it's liable to melt when it comes within a few cm of 2000F molten glass.

Yeah, I had a feeling.

The closest thing I know is an impossible bottle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impossible_bottle
It has quite some limitations, but maybe you can find someone who does impossible bottles and they can tell you, if it can be done.
