Summary/Abstract: After many years' work gathering archaeological material, systematic research, and acquisitions by purchase, gift etc., Bosnia and Herzegovina now has a considerable quantity of intact or fragmentary examples of antique glass. The antiquities collection of the National Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina houses the greatest number of antique glass artefacts - more than 450 intact or fragmentary glass artefacts of various types and dates originating from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Reference works dealing with antique glass fall into three chronological stages: the Austro-Hungarian period in Bosnia and Herzegovina (1878-1918), the period between the two world wars, and the post-World War II period.
