The glass was first created around 5,000 years ago. Glass we see today is transparent but it wasn't like this from the very beginning. The glass was first created to resemble other materials like crystals and so on. Because they are easy to work with when heated glass soon after being manufactured became a popular product. Glass during late times were used as ornaments by pharaohs and others. The production of the first glass vessel first took place in Egypt. The glass vessels were created in the 16th century. During the times the glass vessels were very precious and were used as gifts between the high-class peoples. Glass cups from the late times were mostly used for serving wines and other alcohols.
From ancient times drinking wine and alcohol during various occasions has always been practiced and the glass cups were highly used for imperial occasions. Later after the development of the materials, the process of creating glass cups became easier and not only that many people came with various tools and techniques to decorate the glass cups. As the time passed the glass cups were no longer used for drinking only alcohol but many other liquors could be enjoyed in these stunning cups.
