Glass is a strange material. Its original source material is sand, but it needs human intervention through the application of heat and other processes to find form. We can see through it, but we can't touch what's on the other side. You can use it to concentrate a light source. Or it's helpful if you want to protect your eyes, but still see what you're doing. Both solid and fragile, it can be used to make art, or poison bottles. It often depicts tales of myth or religious instruction through stained glass in churches. And we can't forget its appearance in fairy tales through glass coffins or slippers. Let's take a look at how glass appears in the world of superstitions, fairy tales, and even fairy lore in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
