Glassblower

A glassblower is a craftsman who specializes in the production of glass. This process involves sourcing ash and sand, heating the two together at a low temperature, melting the two at the highest temperature possible, and blowing the glass into vessels or cylinders that could be opened into sheets for windows.

==History==
Historically, the primary jobs of the glassmaker were to produce serving and drinking vessels out of glass and to make windows for nobles and the church, however with new technological developments and the rise of the merchant class in Calabria glass has exploded in popularity and those seeking opulence may hire a glassblower to produce artistic pieces or materials for their own crafts.
