Wineglass making goes back a extensive era, as far as 5 centuries before the common era. Written records of Pliney, an ancient Roman historian, state that the Phoenician merchants inhabiting the territory of Syria were the earliest to by chance come across a new and useful substance called 'tumbler'. However, many myths and legends veil the genuine discovery of tumbler. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no Laboratory Glassware today!

Goblet making in the Egyptian period The exquisite, and almost ethereal, shapes that beaker manufacturers fashion now have advanced over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., wineglass beads had started adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian civilization. Schooner 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, goblet vessels were being completed but the art of beaker blowing had not yet been invented. The Egyptians and those in the Middle East were commonly making tumbler mosaics.

Romans find out schooner blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that tumbler blowing, as it is acknowledged today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This controlling finding utterly transformed the meansschooner would henceforth be used and, ultimately, appear. The tedious task of wrapping schooner around a core to turn it into a vessel now became so much easier with the new schooner blowing technique. Suddenly, a whole view of infinite potential opened up before Roman beaker artisans.

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

Glass works all through the Middle Ages all through the Middle Ages, wineglass was primarily made as coloured adornment for use in stained wineglass windows in the Gothic architecture that dominated most of Europe at that period.

From Venice to Murano It was in this exciting period of revolution and discovery that tumbler blowing began 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 glass blowing secrets 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!

Glass-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, beaker-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and secluded island of Murano. These Murano wineglass blowers quickly became the very last word in the sensitiveand time-consuming art of schooner blowing, creating delicate shapes and patterns that would enthrall futuregenerations. But, at the price if their liberty. No artisan or his relatives was allowed to depart 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 get away 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 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 way mirrors were made. Polished metallic mirrors began to give mode to lovely wineglass mirrors (women were delighted!) Nowadays, Laboratory Glassware is much in demand!

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