A method of producing glass balls, which method can be used for all types of glass, even for glass balls having a very small diameter. If glass fibers or glass rods are plasticized at least partially at their ends by the effect of heat, if glass portions are separated from the plasticized parts of the glass fibers or glass rods, sprayed or passed through nozzles, and if glass balls are formed by subsequently cooling the separated and sprayed glass portions as a result of minimizing the surface energy, then a complex, mechanical surface-finishing treatment is not required.
