Schooner 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 living in the territory of Syria were the first to by chance come across an innovative new and useful substance called 'wineglass'. However, many myths and tradition blanket the actual finding of glass. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no glass tumblers exc today!

Schooner making in the Egyptian epoch The fine, and very nearly ethereal, shapes that goblet makers build these days have progressed over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., goblet beads had begun adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian civilization. Tumbler beads and amulets, dating back to pre-Roman eras have been said to be worn as far back as 2500 B.C. During the pre-Roman times, tumbler vessels were being made but the art of schooner blowing had not yet been invented. The Egyptians and those in the Middle East were habitually making wineglass mosaics.

Romans find out wineglass blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that goblet blowing, as it is known today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This dominant discovery fully changed the meanswineglass would henceforth be used and, finally, appear. The wearisome task of wrapping wineglass around a core to turn it into a vessel now became so much easier with the new schooner blowing technique. Suddenly, a whole vista of countless potential opened up before Roman glass artisans.

In a short instant, Rome started to dominate the glass market, as it did in many other trades. Rome almost immediately became the ancient world's epicentre for production and distribution of blown wineglass and led to the glass tumblers exc that we have today.

Beaker works for the duration of the Middle Ages for the duration of the Middle Ages, glass was primarily made as coloured ornamentation for use in stained schooner windows in the Gothic buildings that dominated nearly all 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 lessthan 8,000 wineglass artisans in the Middle Ages! The Italians, however, guarded their tumbler blowing secrets zealously, going so far as to even lay down a stern decree that made sharing or 'leaking' out goblet-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, wineglass-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and secluded island of Murano. These Murano wineglass blowers before long became the ultimate word in the delicateand period-consuming art of goblet blowing, creating superb shapes and types that would enthrall futuregenerations. But, at the price tag if their liberty. No artisan or his family unit was allowed to go away the shores of Murano -- it was an offence liable to be punished by by death.

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

Schooner 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 glass in China date to 221 B.C. - 220 A.D. It is believed that blown wineglass was introduced to China by Persian beaker artists. Historians now attribute the restricted attention in schooner in ancient China to the incredible and pervasive use of paper technology. For instance, in China windows were 'glazed' with strong, clear paper, not goblet panes. They simply did not see the need for tumbler!
