Bohemian glass, mainly known as Bohemian crystal, is a glass produced in the regions of Bohemia and Silesia, now parts of the Czech Republic. It has a centuries-long history of being internationally recognised for its high quality, craftsmanship, beauty and often innovative designs. Hand-cut, engraved, blown and painted decorative glassware ranging from champagne flutes to huge candelabras, ornaments, figurines and other glassware are among the best-known Czech exports and are immensely popular, both among the local and foreign population.
