Kitras Art Glass

Ornaments

Kitras has been creating ornaments since we started in 1988. Our ornaments come in a wide selection of shapes, sizes and colors. All of our ornaments have a special story or meaning, which is written on a tag that accompanies each ball.

All that is required to make glass is sand, soda ash, pot ash, lime and high heat. History sets the beginning of glass production nearly four thousand years ago in Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq). The Process of making glass was discovered while potters fused sand and minerals while firing their clay. One clever Mesopotamian managed to form a glass tube and blow a bubble at the end creating the first blowpipe and hence the art of glassblowing.
