This is correct. The Cloisters in NYC has a collection of medieval glassware
on display that is to die for. The intricacy of the patterns is astounding.
They even have salt cellars of hand blown crystal that look like ships with
rigging and sales all done in glass. There is a tendency for some
recreationists to wrongly emphasize the simple wares when the reality of
medieval culture is exactly the opposite.
