This site provides information about the AIHV - what it is, how to join, where to buy our publications and how to find out about our congresses.
We are an international organisation devoted to advancing knowledge about glass - its use, history and aesthetic qualities from antiquity to present times.
We hold a congress every three years and publish the papers that are given in the series Annales de l'AIHV.
The last congress was held in Antwerp, Belgium in September 2006.
The next one will be held in Thessaloniki, Greece in September, 2009.
