The invention of glassblowing in the late first century B.C. stands as the most sweeping innovation in glassmaking technology in the Graeco-Roman era, stimulating a transformation of the ways in which glass was made and used. The new process enabled a skilled craftsman to fashion a simple vessel in a few minutes. With the same basic equipment, a glassmaker could produce a limitless array of vessels in almost any shape and size. No longer a luxury item reserved for the rich alone, blown glassware fell within the means of a much larger segment of the population. The far greater frequency of glass vessels among the objects excavated at archaeological sites dating from the first century A.D. onward suggests that glass had become a standard household material.
