Farlow’s Scientific Glassblowing is a small California company that makes incredible handmade glass anatomical models. Most of their models replicate portions of the vascular system and can be filled with simulated blood to demonstrate blood flow. The models are also used as teaching and demonstration tools for medical devices. The models include joints that allow them to be combined to replicate an entire vascular system (the full-size demonstrator model is $25,000).
