The Bohemian region is one of the origins of glass manufacturing, and the Czech Republic is the most important industrial country among them. Frantisek Halama was born in a glass family in 1912, and developed a strong interest in art glass from his parents. In 1932, Frantisek Halama established his own glass manufacturing workshop. His works immediately became successful around the world, exported to Italy, France and the United States. Winning a medal at the French World Expo in 1937, its superb craftsmanship has enabled the works of Halama Workshop to decorate the homes of kings and presidents around the world. It was not until 1948 that the company was nationalized by the red regime, the Halama family became the public enemy of the people, and artistic creation came to an end.
