Glass Blower

Glass BlowerFrom what has been recorded the occupation of the Glassblower was a specialy trade that required years of training. Glass was made my heating sand and water at extremely high temperatures and melting it into a near liquid. As this substance dried, tubes of metal and glass were inserted at which the crafter would use his breath to blow through them and shape the flexible material. Guilds were common sources of entry for this profession and as such a highly skilled craft, Glassblowers often earned high wages.
