Beaker making goes back a long time, all the way to 5000 B.C. Written records of Pliney, an ancient Roman historian, state that the Phoenician merchants inhabiting the area of Syria were the earliest to accidentally come across an innovative and useful substance called 'beaker'. However, many myths and folklore cloak the actual discovery of glass. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no deep red glassware today!

Goblet creation in the Egyptian times The delicate, and virtually ethereal, shapes that wineglass makers generate now have developed over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., tumbler beads had begun adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian society. Beaker beads and amulets, dating back to pre-Roman eras have been said to be worn as far back as 2500 B.C. All through the pre-Roman times, beaker vessels were being made but the fine art of glass blowing had not yet been invented. The Egyptians and those in the Middle East were as a rule making wineglass mosaics.

Romans discover beaker blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that glass blowing, as it is celebrated today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This dominant finding utterly changed the waybeaker 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 wineglass blowing technique. Suddenly, a whole view of limitless promise opened up before Roman wineglass artisans.

In a short time, Rome began to dominate the schooner market, as it did in many other trades. Rome soon became the ancient world's epicentre for fabrication and supply of blown glass and led to the deep red glassware that we have today.

Goblet works during the Middle Ages during the Middle Ages, schooner was primarily made as coloured embellishment for use in stained beaker windows in the Gothic structure that dominated the largest part of Europe at that era.

From Venice to Murano It was in this exciting period of alteration and discovery that glass blowing began to be concentrated in Venice, which had no fewerthan 8,000 glass artisans throughout the Middle Ages! The Italians, however, guarded their schooner blowing strategies zealously, going so far as to even lay down a stern decree that made sharing or 'leaking' out tumbler-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, tumbler-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and secluded island of Murano. These Murano goblet blowers rapidly became the very last word in the delicateand time-consuming art of tumbler blowing, creating fine shapes and designs that would enthrall upcominggenerations. But, at the price if their freedom. No artisan or his family was allowed to leave the shores of Murano -- it was an offence liable to be punished by by death.

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

Schooner blowing in China There is not much known about goblet 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 tumbler was introduced to China by Persian schooner artists. Historians now attribute the limited awareness in tumbler in ancient China to the incredible and prevalent use of paper technology. For instance, in China windows were 'glazed' with strong, translucent paper, not beaker panes. They simply did not see the need for wineglass!
