FOR THE EYES

The history of creating glass can be traced back to 3500 BCE in Mesopotamia. The term glass developed in the late Roman Empire. It was in the Roman glassmaking center at Trier, now in modern Germany, that the late-Latin term glesum originated, probably from a Germanic word for a transparent, lustrous substance.

The National Heisey Glass Museum..The museum, housed in the 1831 King House along with a beautiful new expansion, features Heisey glass which was produced in Newark,Ohio from 1895 to 1957. A few photos from the King House….(The historic Samuel D. King residence, an 1831 Greek Revival style home.)

When you visit the museum ask if there is a “ghost story” concerning the doors. Now,on to the second floor.
