Industry = Media

Press Release Summary = The new art glass guide.

Press Release Body = The information directory has evolved into a one stop resource
for data on most aspects of historic and contemporary art glass. We currently have
over 2553 sites listed for the visitor to review. There are currently over 700
visitors to the site on a daily basis with more and more visitors coming to our
location from around the world.

The world of art glass is composed of many elements related to designing, creating,
marketing, selling, displaying, collecting and reselling glass forms in this
wonderful art medium. We continuously search for new and interesting sites
pertaining to this wonderful medium.

Our organization is composed of four individuals who have a passion for art glass
in its many forms. We have written a book about art glass, been a certified
appraiser of glass, presented speeches on American and Swedish art glass, acted as a
retailer of art and functional glass, managed major crystal work's galleries in New
York and Sweden, promoted art glass from the Nordic region and have collected all
forms of art glass.

Our love of art glass and the many ways it has been used throughout history sent us
to the internet. There were high hopes of discovering new and untapped resources to
further enhance our appreciation and knowledge of art glass. We hoped there would be
one website directory pointing us in the right direction to find art glass, glass
artists, dealers, museums, etc.

We searched for the one site where most aspects of historic and contemporary art
glass could be located without having to go through an unusual number of searches.
Since this type of site could not be found, we decided to create
www.worldartglass.com

The focus is to present a compact list of sites for use by collectors, glass
students, designers, artisans, artists, educators, gallery owners, dealers, museum
directors, authors and travelers and tourists.

The site has evolved to contain the following categories with a total of over 2525
specific sites.
