It seems that as early as the 10th century the Catalans were making glass of the highest quality. Blowing and pumping, the glassmaking industry flourished and grew for centuries, just like its important counterparts in Venice and other centres. Over the centuries, the most beautiful colours decorated drinking glasses, jars and bottles.
