  • Glass Beads of the Viking Age
    Glass Beads of the Viking Age HL Renart (the fox) of Berwick What are Glass Beads? Glass beads are small pieces of glass that have been melted and molded inside a heated oven (forge) or over the very hot coals of a fire, and then wound or spun on a thin rod and possibly decorated (Ill. 1). Others small decorative items similar to glass beads are pieces of amber or jet that were carved into beads, gaming pieces, or other jewelry items. Illustration 1: Glass beads (Dahlquist and Illustration 2: Glass Gaming Pieces (Levick and Martensson undated) Beadle 1992) Who Made the Beads? Glass bead-makers were artisans who imported glass from Western Europe to support their craft. The beads were used as jewelry for the townsfolk and for trade items across the lands. The artisans lived amongst the Viking people, and followed in their footsteps as they moved from area to area. Therefore, Viking glass beads were made in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Greenland, England, Gotland, Scotland, Ireland, etc. Other cultures worked in and made glass, and there are glass beads from prehistoric sites, Celtic sites and Roman sites. However, this paper is concentrating upon beads made during the Viking or Norse era. When? The Vikings made glass beads from the 8th -11th centuries. As mentioned above, glass beads 1 were made prior to the Viking era by other cultures, and, of course, they were made after the Viking era and are still made today. Who Wore the Beads? Mostly the women of the time, at least in the Viking culture.

  • Guo, Jianyong (2016) 'Inside Painting', As Used for Chinese Snuff
    Guo, Jianyong (2016) `Inside Painting', as used for Chinese snuff bottles, suggested as a new model for contemporary glass art. Doctoral thesis, University of Sunderland. Downloaded from: http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/id/eprint/10274/ Usage guidelines Please refer to the usage guidelines at http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/policies.html or alternatively contact [email protected]. ‘Inside Painting’, as used for Chinese snuff bottles, suggested as a new model for contemporary glass art Jianyong Guo A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the University of Sunderland for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy October 2016 1 ‘Inside Painting’，as used for Chinese snuff bottles，suggested as a new model for contemporary glass art Jianyong Guo (2016) University of Sunderland Abstract This research has been an art-based practice-led project focused on Chinese „inside painting‟ in glass art. It has attempted to create a „new model‟ for Chinese traditional inside painting through the creation of contemporary glass artworks. This is timely because Chinese academic glass teaching is emerging in universities, and cast glass techniques dominate the curriculum. The research offers an example of how traditional methods might be revitalized by one artist to extend the options for Chinese University glass teaching. Potential recipients are glass artists and students as well as curators and collectors. This research mainly used studio-based art practices, inspired by traditional inside painting of Chinese snuff bottles, traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy, influenced by Taoism, together with Western glass painting, printing and calligraphy in order to reduce some of the existing limitations of traditional methods.
