CNRS explores how medieval craftsmen made glass

Original: Dans la peau des verriers médiévaux 🔸 Fabriquer du verre comme au Moyen Âge https:// lejournal.cnrs.fr/videos/fabri quer

The CNRS has released a video showing researchers and artisans recreating glass the way medieval glassmakers did, working with wood-fired furnaces and period techniques. The piece invites viewers to step into the shoes of medieval glassworkers and understand the craft behind a material often taken for granted. It is being shared among people interested in science, history and traditional craftsmanship.

Why now: The CNRS's look at experimental archaeology of medieval glassmaking is drawing attention from science and history enthusiasts.
