About Egermann Glass:
Friedrich Egermann
was a great personality of the Bohemian glass manufacture of the 19
th
century. He got on an important glass painter, technologist, experienced merchandiser and respectable burgess from quite arm conditions.
He served his apprenticeship as a glass maker and painter with his uncle. He was allowed to join the guild of glass cutters, gilders and painters at Chřibská.
He visited important Saxonian china producers in Gera and above all the castle Albrechtsburg in Meissen.
Here, the inquisitive young Egermann managed to find out the preparation of inks, the manufacture of brushes and fine china painting methods including the decoration firing despite of their maximal concealment.
In 1820 he built a larger glass decorating shop in the house Nr. 101 in the square (Glass Museum today).
He experimented almost continually with the glass coloring in thin layers – staining. In 1817 – 1818 he managed the technology of the yellow staining and its industrialization.
Friedrich Egermann influenced a new boom of the Bohemian glass manufacturing and became its most important personality of the time. His most important invention – the red staining has been manufactured until now under its traditional name
