Feel Bohemian delivers old world craft on a new world schedule. Central European (Czech) glass can be found in Corinthian excavations from the 11th and 12th centuries. At that time, the production of arts and crafts ceased to be the sole preserve of monasteries. Glassworks began to be built in forests, as workers required vast quantities of wood to feed their furnaces. The darkest and most extensive forests were colonized in this hungry quest. These glassworks produced "forest glass" of a green shade, caused by imperfect refining of raw the materials, potash and quartz sand. Potash was gleaned from the ashes of burned wood and used as a melting material instead of soda. Potash glass is typical of this Central European area.
