Wineglass making goes back a extensive time, as far as 5 centuries before the common era. Writings from Pliny, a famous Roman historian, state that the Phoenician merchants living in the territory of Syria were the earliest to by mistake stumble upon a new and useful substance called 'beaker'. However, many myths and folklore blanket the actual discovery of wineglass. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no Candlewick Glassware today!

Tumbler making in the Egyptian era The wonderful, and very nearly ethereal, shapes that tumbler manufacturers construct now have advanced over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., glass beads had started adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian the social order. Beaker beads and amulets, dating back to pre-Roman eras have been said to be worn as far back as 2500 B.C. Through the pre-Roman times, beaker vessels were being made but the fine art of schooner blowing had not yet been invented. The Egyptians and those in the Middle East were commonly making schooner mosaics.

Romans discover goblet blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that beaker blowing, as it is known today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This controlling finding fully transformed the modetumbler would henceforth be used and, finally, appear. The wearisome task of wrapping schooner around a core to turn it into a vessel now became so much easier with the new glass blowing technique. Rapidly, a whole vista of countless possibilities opened up before Roman tumbler artisans.

In a little instant, Rome started to dominate the tumbler market, as it did in many other trades. Rome quickly became the ancient world's epicentre for production and supply of blown goblet and led to the Candlewick Glassware that we have today.

Wineglass works throughout the Middle Ages for the duration of the Middle Ages, tumbler was primarily made as coloured ornamentation for use in stained glass windows in the Gothic architecture that dominated the largest part of Europe at that period.

From Venice to Murano It was in this exciting period of alteration and discovery that tumbler blowing started to be concentrated in Venice, which had no fewerthan 8,000 schooner artisans for the duration of the Middle Ages! The Italians, however, guarded their glass blowing techniques zealously, going so far as to even lay down a stern decree that made sharing or 'leaking' out schooner-blowing techniques to outsiders as a punishable offence!

Beaker-making concerned the extensive use of fire, which always a posed a risk to the crowded and timber-rich city of Venice. And, so in 1291, glass-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and secluded island of Murano. These Murano goblet blowers quickly became the final word in the sensitiveand era-consuming art of glass blowing, creating wonderful shapes and styles that would enthrall cominggenerations. But, at the price if their independence. No artisan or his relatives was allowed to depart the shores of Murano -- it was an offence punishable by death.

Murano artisans get away to Europe Still, many wineglass makers did manage to break out Murano and it was they who spread the art of beaker blowing outside Venice and introduced it to Tyrol, Vienna, Flanders, France and England. The earliest Venetian wineglass was used for making rosaries as evidenced by some 13th century rosary beads that have been since discovered. These talented Murano schooner artisans also made a spectacular contribution to the technique mirrors were made. Polished metal mirrors started to give method to lovely schooner mirrors (women were delighted!) Nowadays, Candlewick Glassware is much in demand!

Glass blowing in China There is not much known about schooner being made in China -- even while it was being moulded into fantastic shapes and decorative pieces in far away Rome. The earliest records of wineglass in China date to 221 B.C. - 220 A.D. It is thought that blown wineglass was introduced to China by Persian tumbler artists. Historians now attribute the restricted interest in wineglass in ancient China to the incredible and widespread use of paper technology. For example, in China windows were 'glazed' with strong, translucent paper, not goblet panes. They simply did not see the need for tumbler!
