More than 200 years ago glass-maker fortress, Alexander Vershinin has created a unique double-layer glasses, between the walls which housed the whole picture, rather small models of landscapes made of stones, moss, straw, colored threads and paper..To understand the secret of their production and to reproduce a similar product until now no one has succeeded.

Nikol"skii glass plant in the Penza region was founded in 1764 by landowner by Bakhmetieva by decree of Catherine II –"делать crystal and glassware most decent мастерам...". Of the European countries there are deliver product samples, which should learn the local bakhmetevsky bus masters.

For one of the services manufactured Vershinin for the Tsar, for about 70 people, the Emperor-император" пожаловать deign master Vershinin gold watch, expressed his pleasure that Russia finish crystal brought to such perfection”.







But the most famous of this master with his unique glasses, which is now called" Vershina".


Famous glasses Vershinina

How many of these masterpieces have survived to the present day – is not known. Some of them are in private collections and only occasionally" pop up" at auction, a few pieces are kept in museums.

One of these glasses were exhibited in the Russian Museum, being proud of it.

On the walls of this glass depicts a landscape in the Park of the estate bakhmetieva gentlemen walk with ladies, children are playing outside in the pond ducks and geese, on the tree branches sit bird, full idyll... Like nothing special, but what is surprising is that the composition is not painted, but made of straw, thin twigs, moss, paper and is inside the glass. How this could be done and not to burn the layout, when the glasses are produced at a very high temperature?

unfortunately, marvel at that glass any longer. In August 1996, this masterpiece was stolen from the Museum and still not found.

a few of these glasses with different scenes depicted on them are stored in other Museum collections.

the secret of the glasses Vershinina

Long time the technology of manufacturing these glasses have remained a complete mystery, but later, when researching one such glass that has a small chip on the edge, found that he had double walls, and the composition is not placed in the glass, and between the walls.

, nevertheless, there remain a number of mysteries that leave specialists in admiration and disbelief: How the master used to attach their models to the glass – the glasses are completely transparent, and the glue on them is not visible. How did you managed to insert one Cup into another, so that the picture is not moved out of the gap between cups are almost there. And finally, as they sealed the walls of the cups from above, while leaving intact the whole composition.

In recent years, theoretically the proposed options, how to do it. As a glue you can use ice. First, the picture is applied on a wet surface, which is then frozen. Further, when the glasses are inserted into each other, the ice melted. To insert one glass to another, the outer Cup is heated and the interior cooled. The gap between them increases, and the glasses carefully inserted one into the other, using as guides, for example, straws.

And for welding the edges of the glass, you can coat them with phosphorus and burn like fireworks. Allocate a large amount of heat that will be sufficient for local welding. And it is possible that edges are not welded, but simply filled with a special mastic. But even if so, still it is very laborious and time-consuming work that only a true virtuoso. But so far nobody has tried to repeat it.



There is information about what one Moscow family is the owner of one absolutely unique – not even a two-layer and three-layer glass. Of course, its price is fabulous. That is why information about this glass is very scarce and are not disclosed. But, maybe, this unique glass when-нибудь get into the Museum, and the great Russian master Alexander Vershinin still surprise us?
