Wineglass making goes back a extensive era, all the way to 5000 B.C. Writings from Pliny, a famous Roman historian, state that the Phoenician merchants inhabiting the province of Syria were the earliest to by chance stumble upon an innovative new and useful substance called 'beaker'. However, many myths and tradition blanket the real finding of tumbler. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no glass tumblers 22k today!

Tumbler production in the Egyptian period The delicate, and nearly ethereal, shapes that glass manufacturers form nowadays have developed over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., goblet beads had started adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian the social order. Wineglass 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, tumbler vessels were being completed but the 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 see wineglass blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that wineglass blowing, as it is well-known today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This potent discovery absolutely changed the waytumbler would henceforth be used and, finally, appear. The dull task of wrapping goblet around a core to turn it into a vessel now became so much easier with the new schooner blowing technique. All of a sudden, a whole outlook of endless possibilities opened up before Roman schooner artisans.

In a little time, Rome began to dominate the schooner marketplace, as it did in many other trades. Rome quickly became the ancient world's epicentre for production and supply of blown wineglass and led to the glass tumblers 22k that we have today.

Tumbler works for the duration of the Middle Ages all through the Middle Ages, tumbler was primarily made as coloured ornamentation for use in stained wineglass windows in the Gothic structure that dominated the largest part of Europe at that time.

From Venice to Murano It was in this exciting period of modification and discovery that goblet blowing began to be concentrated in Venice, which had no fewerthan 8,000 schooner artisans in the Middle Ages! The Italians, however, guarded their glass blowing strategies 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!

Wineglass-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, goblet-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and faraway island of Murano. These Murano goblet blowers soon became the last word in the delicateand period-consuming art of glass blowing, creating lovely shapes and designs that would enthrall futuregenerations. But, at the fee if their liberty. No artisan or his family was allowed to leave the shores of Murano -- it was an offence punishable by death.

Murano artisans escape to Europe Still, many wineglass makers did manage to get away 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 tumbler 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 means to lovely wineglass mirrors (women were delighted!) Nowadays, glass tumblers 22k is much in demand!

Beaker blowing in China There is not much known about glass 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 supposed that blown tumbler was introduced to China by Persian schooner artists. Historians now attribute the restricted interest in wineglass in ancient China to the incredible and common use of paper technology. For example, in China windows were 'glazed' with strong, semi-transparent paper, not goblet panes. They simply did not see the need for glass!
