Beaker 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 region of Syria were the first to by chance come across a new and useful substance called 'wineglass'. However, many myths and folklore veil the authentic discovery of tumbler. Lucky for us that this accident happend or there would be no red glassware 39 today!

Glass manufacture in the Egyptian period The wonderful, and nearly ethereal, shapes that beaker makers form these days have developed over the centuries. By 3500 B.C., schooner beads had begun adorning the upper-echelons of Egyptian civilization. Goblet 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, schooner vessels were being completed but the art of tumbler blowing had not yet been invented. The Egyptians and those in the Middle East were regularly making tumbler mosaics.

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

In a little time, Rome began to dominate the glass marketplace, as it did in many other trades. Rome rapidly became the ancient world's epicentre for fabrication and supply of blown goblet and led to the red glassware 39 that we have today.

Tumbler workings throughout the Middle Ages for the duration of the Middle Ages, glass was primarily made as coloured embellishment for use in stained tumbler windows in the Gothic structure that dominated most of Europe at that time.

From Venice to Murano It was in this exciting period of transformation and discovery that tumbler blowing started to be concentrated in Venice, which had no lessthan 8,000 goblet artisans in the Middle Ages! The Italians, however, guarded their tumbler blowing tricks 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!

Goblet-making involved the extensive use of fire, which always a posed a risk to the crowded and timber-rich city of Venice. And, so in 1291, schooner-making officially moved out of Venice to the then little-known and remote island of Murano. These Murano schooner blowers quickly became the very last word in the sensitiveand time-consuming art of wineglass blowing, creating wonderful shapes and types that would enthrall upcominggenerations. But, at the cost if their liberty. No artisan or his family was allowed to depart the shores of Murano -- it was an offence liable to be punished by by death.

Murano artisans get away to Europe Still, many glass makers did manage to escape 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 goblet was used for making rosaries as evidenced by some 13th century rosary beads that have been since discovered. These talented Murano schooner artisans also made a spectacular contribution to the way mirrors were made. Polished metal mirrors started to give means to lovely goblet mirrors (women were delighted!) Nowadays, red glassware 39 is much in demand!

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