Glass making goes back a extensive time, all the way to 5000 B.C. Writings from Pliny, a famous Roman historian, state that the Phoenician merchants inhabiting the territory of Syria were the earliest to by mistake encounter an innovative and useful substance called 'glass'. However, many myths and folklore shroud the actual discovery of beaker. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no Carnival Glass Vase today!

Wineglass making in the Egyptian era The exquisite, and almost ethereal, shapes that beaker makers build today have developed over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., wineglass beads had begun adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian society. Glass beads and amulets, dating back to pre-Roman eras have been said to be worn as far back as 2500 B.C. Throughout the pre-Roman times, beaker vessels were being completed but the fine art of wineglass blowing had not yet been invented. The Egyptians and those in the Middle East were regularly making tumbler mosaics.

Romans learn goblet blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that glass blowing, as it is known today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This dominant discovery completely transformed the waygoblet would henceforth be used and, ultimately, appear. The tiresome task of wrapping glass around a core to turn it into a vessel now became so much easier with the new tumbler blowing technique. All of a sudden, a whole outlook of infinite promise opened up before Roman goblet artisans.

In a short time, Rome began to dominate the goblet marketplace, as it did in many other trades. Rome before long became the ancient world's epicentre for fabrication and supply of blown goblet and led to the Carnival Glass Vase that we have today.

Wineglass workings throughout the Middle Ages all through the Middle Ages, wineglass was primarily made as coloured adornment for use in stained tumbler windows in the Gothic architecture that dominated most of Europe at that era.

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

Goblet-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, tumbler-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and isolated island of Murano. These Murano beaker blowers rapidly became the final word in the delicateand period-consuming art of beaker blowing, creating beautiful shapes and styles that would enthrall upcominggenerations. But, at the cost if their free will. No artisan or his family was allowed to go away the shores of Murano -- it was an offence punishable by death.

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

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