Glass bottles have served humanity for over 2,000 years — not just as containers, but as markers of innovation, luxury, and purpose.

🧴 In Ancient Egypt, small core-formed bottles were crafted for precious oils and essences.
🌬️ With the Roman invention of glassblowing, free- and mold-blown bottles were used for transporting liquids or even preserving ashes of the deceased.
🌿 During the Islamic golden age, pattern-moulded sprinkler bottles allowed slow-pouring of perfumed essences with elegance.

🌳 In Medieval Europe, forest-glasshouses in regions like Weald and the Rhine Valley produced thin-walled green-glass bottles with “kick” bases for stability.
💎 By the 16th century, Venice led the way in luxury bottle design—ushering in a new era of decorative glass for the elite.
📦 But it was only in the 17th century that the world saw true industrial production of bottle types that served both commerce and culture.
🔍 At Jagrat Glass, we don’t just manufacture bottles—we carry this legacy forward with modern precision, aesthetic finesse, and a deep respect for history. From heritage to high-volume, from form to function—we craft glass that tells a story.
