GLASS
ART
Glass art is usually understood to refer to large modern works of art,
typically one-off creations, which are substantially or wholly made in
glass. It is distinguished from "art glass" and "studio glass" which
are typically smaller and often made in editions of many identical
pieces, but the boundaries are not clear-cut. Glass art is more likely
to be exhibited in public spaces rather than in homes.

GLASSBLOWING
Glassblowing is a glassforming technique that involves inflating molten
glass into a bubble, or parison, with the aid of a blowpipe, or blow
tube. A person who blows glass is called a glassblower, glassmith, or
gaffer.

THE HISTORY
OF GLASS
MAKING
Stone-age man has used naturally occurring glass obsidian, the black
volcanic glass, and tektites to craft weapons and decorative objects.
Archaeological findings in Egypt and Eastern Mesopotamia indicate that
the first manufactured glass dates back to 3000BC. The oldest fragments
of glass vases were found in Mesopotamia in the 16th century BC and
they represented the evidence of the origins of the hollow glass industry.
Beside Mesopotamia, hollow glass production was also evolving in the same
time in Egypt, in Mycenae (Greece), China and North Tyrol. The first
glassmaking manual from the library of the Assyrian king Ashurbanipal
(669-626 BC) dates back to around 650BC.
