Yes you can recover the gold, but study first and learn all the hazards.

Several precipitants listed in the Hoke text. It is the best place to start.

I found this on Cranberry glass:

Interesting! Welcome to the forum!

it would all depend on whether you want pure gold out of solution or you just want gold metal that may not be so pure. the simplest and fastest process is to cement the gold out of solution on a clean copper buss bar. if theres only gold in solution and your copper is clean with no coatings, the gold should cement out at around 99% pure. maybe even 99.5%.

Jason the guys are joking with you but not in any way to be nasty, we do get some strange individuals join the forum so we try to see if the posts are serious and related to the subject of precious metals.
While I can tell you as can all of the others who have posted how to recover the gold I would hesitate to give that information out to easily until I know you know exactly what it entails, the other thought going through my mind is that you mention you use this to make glass, are you sure recovering the gold will be more profitable than using it in the enamelling business your in?
There are several very easy methods to recover your values using selective precipitants and a little rinsing, drying and melting but consider the value to your business of that solution before you decide if this is what you want to do.
