Czech glass has a long history going back centuries, and it is currently the best glass produced in the world.
The early 18th and 19th centuries were the heyday of Czech glass production, with splendid Bohemian crystal chandeliers sold worldwide.
The fused glass sculptures of Jaroslava Brychtova and Stanislav Libensky, which fundamentally changed the technical principles of the medium of glass worldwide, are also on display.
The exhibition will last until June 13 at the Vietnam Fine Arts Museum, 66 Nguyen Thai Hoc Street, Hanoi.
