Tumbler making goes back a long era, 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 stumble upon an innovative new and useful substance called 'wineglass'. However, many myths and tradition cloak the authentic finding of schooner. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no Pink Glassware today!

Schooner creation in the Egyptian times The exquisite, and very nearly ethereal, shapes that glass makers build now have progressed over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., goblet beads had started adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian society. Wineglass 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 by and large making tumbler mosaics.

Romans come across wineglass blowing It was not until the 1st century BC that schooner blowing, as it is recognized today, actually made an appearance in Syria (then under the Romans). This great discovery fully transformed the meansgoblet would henceforth be used and, ultimately, appear. The wearying task of wrapping tumbler around a core to turn it into a vessel now became so much easier with the new glass blowing technique. Suddenly, a whole outlook of countless potential opened up before Roman tumbler artisans.

In a little time, Rome began to dominate the glass market, as it did in many other trades. Rome shortly became the ancient world's epicentre for construction and distribution of blown glass and led to the Pink Glassware that we have today.

Schooner workings in the Middle Ages during the Middle Ages, goblet was primarily made as coloured embellishment for use in stained schooner windows in the Gothic buildings that dominated nearly all of Europe at that period.

From Venice to Murano It was in this exciting period of alteration and discovery that glass blowing started to be concentrated in Venice, which had no fewerthan 8,000 tumbler artisans throughout the Middle Ages! The Italians, however, guarded their goblet blowing tricks zealously, going so far as to even lay down a stern decree that made sharing or 'leaking' out beaker-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, tumbler-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and secluded island of Murano. These Murano beaker blowers quickly became the very last word in the sensitiveand time-consuming art of beaker blowing, creating exquisite shapes and designs that would enthrall upcominggenerations. But, at the cost if their free will. No artisan or his people was allowed to go away the shores of Murano -- it was an offence punishable by death.

Murano artisans escape to Europe Still, many wineglass makers did manage to escape Murano and it was they who spread the art of schooner blowing outside Venice and introduced it to Tyrol, Vienna, Flanders, France and England. The earliest Venetian wineglass 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 technique mirrors were made. Polished metallic mirrors started to give method to lovely glass mirrors (women were delighted!) Nowadays, Pink Glassware is much in demand!

Wineglass blowing in China There is not much known about schooner being made in China -- even while it was being moulded into brilliant 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 supposed that blown wineglass was introduced to China by Persian schooner artists. Historians now attribute the incomplete attention in glass in ancient China to the incredible and general use of paper technology. For illustration, in China windows were 'glazed' with strong, clear paper, not glass panes. They simply did not see the need for beaker!
