"For much of the 20th century, medieval glass seemed to consist of endless prunted green glass beakers that only their makers could have loved. Now, because of a remarkable assemblage of glass from new archaeological sites across Europe, the perception of medieval glass has changed forever. Come explore the beautiful and the not-so-beautiful, with an emphasis on how pieces were made"--Seminar brochure.
