Science in Glass

Glass is one of the most important basic materials. Optical sciences especially would not be possible without glass: glass lenses are an essential component of telescopes and microscopes. Experiments with prisms inspired Newton and Goethe to develop their colour theories.

 

Discover our Science in Glass to find not only lenses and prisms, but also decorative, interesting, and instructive items made from glass.
