	History of Art Glass Lampworking
		Because the lampworker was able to selectively heat the object by directing the flame at a specific area, he could realize exacting procedures which were extremely difficult for the off-hand glassblower.
		Lampworkers would refuse to work in front of or even speak to anyone they thought might be another lampworker.
		Lampworked art is being shown and sold alongside the more traditional mediums of glass blowing and casting, as well as painting and sculpture, in the finest art galleries in the United States, Europe, and Japan.

		Glass lampworking is the centuries-old art and craft of melting glass with a single flame and forming the glass into decorated beads and sculptures.
		Depending on how one defines what lampworking is, much of early glass making could be thought of as a kind of lampworking, or perhaps a precursor to lampworking.
