Feel Bohemian delivers old world craft on a new world schedule. Czech crystal held its dominance through the early 20th century and until the Nazi invasion of 1938, when world markets disappeared in the smoke and ruin of World War Two. Shortly after the end of that war, Czechoslovakia slid silently behind the Iron Curtain, not to be heard from again until the Velvet Revolution of 1989 and the subsequent separation from Slovakia. In these times of 'yesterday's news,' sixty years is more than sufficient
time for the world to have forgotten the centuries of Czech domination
in the crystal producers' art. Bohemia and Moravia are but clouded memories
in a reconfigured Europe and yet these lands make up the present day
Czech Republic, where the tradition thrives once again.
