Glass blowing is an art form that has been around for a long time - considering that around 50BC in fact, when the Roman Empire produced the incredibly critical discovery and changed the face of glass production forever. Once vessels could be created by blowing the glass rather than forming it around a core (often clay or dung around which molten glass was wrapped and shaped on a smooth surface), the achievable shapes of vessels became virtually infinite. Glass became much a lot more of a household object throughout the reign of the Roman Empire as glass blowing was much more efficient than core-forming, as a result accessible to a lot more individuals.
Production of typical use objects for instance glasses and bowls continued, but glassblowers were also experimenting, making some lavish objects that we would now call glass art. The glass was augmented with inlays of gold and brilliant colours, growing its beauty. Quite a few of these vessels had been employed to hold rare and expensive ointments, perfumes and cosmetics. During the Dark Ages in Europe glass blowing and production just about disappeared but as the continent came out of that age it began up again, mainly inside the production of coloured glass for the gothic architecture of the time.

During the Renaissance inside the 17th Century a book was published called L'Arte Vetraria (The Art of Glass) by Antonio Neri, revealing the secrets of glass blowing and production. Venice became the centre of the glass blowing world. Nonetheless, places in Spain, France, Germany, the Netherlands, England and Sweden were developing their own glass industries in what were referred to as forest glass houses, which includes Kosta Glasbruk (still in existence nowadays and known as Kosta Boda), a Swedish glassworks founded by two foreign officers in Charles XII's army. In 1676 there came yet another breakthrough in the glass industry. George Ravenscroft developed a formula for creating glass using lead. The new lead glass stayed workable for a lot longer than other types of glass. Its weight and clarity led to glass makes working with it with out decoration, creating beautiful pieces with the glass alone. More attention was paid to the form of the glass itself, not what was adorning it.
The next significant revolution in glass occurred in the 20th century when designers and artists became an crucial component of the glass houses. Louis Comfort Tiffany, of Tiffany's, was inspired to begin designing glass, leading to the kind of items you now see from the world famous jewellery store. Following a drop in interest, the art of glassmaking produced a comeback inside the 1960s as glass artists began to work in their own studios, outside of the factory environment. All of the artistic experimentation carried out in these studios is referred to as the studio glass movement. The studio glass movement is international and still creating. It began out as and American movement, and quickly spread to Europe, Australia and Asia.
