Glass

Blown, pressed, and collected

Glass is the material where a maker's technique is most visible and least forgiving. The collections here are the ones with a place in the name — Murano, the French factories — because the place is usually the point.

What to look for

Colour inside the glass rather than on it, a maker's mark, and a technique that a factory could not reproduce cheaply.
