The Glass Lexicon:

Emilio Santini

What is a "Conciatore"?

In sixteenth and seventeenth century Florence, a "conciatore" was a specialist in alchemy who formulated glass from raw materials. It is probably a corruption of the Venetian term for the same profession: "conzaor. "

About Me

Paul Engle
I am an independent researcher with a long standing interest in the people surrounding glass and glassmaking from its earliest incarnations to the present. In 2013 I started the Conciatore blog as a companion to a book of the same title that is a biography of Antonio Neri. It proved popular enough to keep blogging, plus, I enjoy the interaction it provides with my readers. As my interest in glass history has broadened, I occasionally post new material based on my more current research.
