== The Worshipful Company of Glass Sellers of London == File:glass sellers logo small.jpg The Worshipful Company of Glass Sellers (Glass Sellers' Company) is one of the Livery Companies of the City of London. The Company received its Royal Charter from King Charles II in 1664. Its role was to regulate the Glass Selling and Pot-Making industries within the City of London, and to ensure quality and fair trade. Aspiring traders in glass were apprenticed to a master who was a member of the Glass Sellers Company. He in turn was accountable to the court and officers of the Livery and ultimately to The Master of the Company. Today the role of Company is to stimulate interest in the many and varied aspects of glass and carry out charitable works, with special emphasis on education. Representatives of almost all the sectors of the modern glass industry are members of the Livery. These include the manufacture and sale of container glass, medical glass, art glass and the Telecommunications, Media and Technology sector. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Worshipful Company of Glass Sellers」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
