Large Glass Bottle France
About the Item
origin:
Driven from his kingdom of Naples, Queen Jeanne took refuge in 1347 in his county of Provence through the Grasse road to Draguignan. Surprised by a violent storm, he pointed to the small castle of asylum gentleman glassmaker in the hamlet of "Saint Paul Gallina Grasse."
After spending the night, the Queen wanted to see make the bottles. A little disturbed, the glassmaker blew the jaws of his cane, and realized a huge bottle that was admired by all its capacity of ten liters. He decided to start manufacturing and Jeanne-called queen, but the sovereign modestly suggested to give him the name demijohn. To protect the large bottle, the glass maker dressed the wicker.
