Narrator, Sonia Bertini.
This Swiss television program (in Italian) was produced to promote an exhibition of Roman glass held at the Museo Archeologico Locarno (Switzerland), presumably in 1988. There are 3 topics: Roman glass (including CMG's reticello cup, mosaic cup and Ennion glasses; "Glass of the Caesars" catalog nos. 15,16,86-87); excavations in Locarno which are yielding Roman glass; and a glass furnace, probably very similar in construction to those used by the Romans. The glassblowing family of Ali Ahmad is shown working in primative conditions.
