Our craft dates for the 10th century and even today we have glass factories that have been in constant production since the mid-fifteen hundreds. Hand made is more special in a world of mass production Every piece in our collection is made entirely by hand, by craftsmen who trace their glass working ancestry back through generations, often in the same villages where they now live and work. Gazing down from the visitor's gallery to the kiln floor, you're likely to see bearded older men working alongside youngsters in shorts, Nike tee shirts and running shoes. Teaching, always teaching as the craft moves across the generations. There's still time to choose and be assured of timely delivery We can have your selections at your door, shipped directly from the Czech
Republic, in a matter of approximately a five to ten days. We deliver
old world craft on a new world schedule. Perhaps, no other country in the world can point to as long a tradition of glassmaking as the Czech Republic. Extensive regions within Bohemia and Moravia continue to remain centers of Czech glassmaking and manufacture. From the earliest days, Czech glass set the tone in European, and world glassmaking. The oldest discovery of glass beads within the Czech Republic dates from the early bronze age, when this territory was populated by Celts who knew the technology of glassmaking and enamel. The range of medieval glass was surprisingly rich and includes graceful transparent glasses decorated with beads.
