Karlovy Vary and Marianske Lazne lie in a region called Slavkovsky Forrest. The area is a nature reserve protected by law and is full of springs due to the volcanic activity. There are many spa towns in this area close to the German border, however we pick the two most important and interesting ones to take you to on this private tour.
Czech Crystal glass
The handmade production of led and carved crystal is historically one of the most important segments of the Czech industry with the oldest tradition. Glass and crystal have been made in the Czech lands for the last 800 years. The industry is based on a well-prevalent craft ability and technical knowledge which were past over from generation to generation. The result is pieces of crystal glass which are admired by many people all over the world.
The high level of quality of Czech glass industry is based on tradition, skills and experiences of the glass makers who are being educated in specialized glass schools that are unique of their type. The first glass making school was established here in 1856. Very important is next to the traditions also design and Czech glass was always focusing on design a lot.
In the end it is fair to say that the Czech crystal glass industry is something our country can be proud of and it is something that Czechs are good at.
