Avoid Breakage and Maintain Shine: A Glass Blog

Hello, and welcome to my glass blog. My name is Phillip. Ever since I got a degree in ancient studies and began to look at some of the early inventions developed by the Mesopotamians, I have been interested in glass. It intrigues me as an artistic material as well as for its great functionality. I love the colour options, and the different ways you can play with clarity and cloudiness. I have worked with glass both in terms of replacing windows and glass tabletops but also as a glass blowing artist. In this blog, I plan to cover all of the aspects of glass I can think of, and I hope you enjoy the posts.
