Glass blowing is a treasured art form among Mexican artisans with deep historical roots. The earliest glass pieces in North America were produced in Puebla, Mexico, around 1535 by artisans brought from Europe by Spanish colonizers. These artisans utilized simple tools, starting with molten glass and a long hollow pipe—a method that remains unchanged to this day. Located in Jalisco, the city of Tonalá has become a renowned center for handicrafts, particularly known for its pottery and glass. The glass industry in Tonalá dates back to pre-Hispanic times, when indigenous communities crafted rudimentary objects from volcanic rock and other materials. Today, Tonalá is home to some of Mexico's most skilled artisans, who create exquisite hand-blown glass using traditional techniques that have been passed down through generations.
