在世纪初，安特卫普是欧洲最重要的港口之一。在考古发现中，大量的玻璃器皿碎片被发现。鉴于威尼斯玻璃器皿成品的高昂价格，安特卫普的玻璃制品不可能全部都是威尼斯产品。这项调查的目的是确定16世纪安特卫普是否有大量当地生产的“facon-de-Venise”玻璃器皿，并阐明如何将这种当地生产与“真实的”区分开来（即，进口）威尼斯器皿。对安特卫普出土的122件“facon-de-Venise”玻璃制品的分析结果进行了考虑。安特卫普数据的聚类显示五个组成组。发现了两组具有典型威尼斯成分的玻璃物体，一组具有“Cristallo”状成分，另一组非常类似于“Vitrum Blanchum”玻璃。其他三个组成组包含可能是本地制造的玻璃。废玻璃大理石的组成与这些组中的一个相吻合。这三组之间的差异可能表明玻璃工人使用了不同类型的碱或可能混合了不同类型的碱。在伦敦、阿姆斯特丹和法国多个地方也发现了相同的非威尼斯成分，这可能是由于从安特卫普向这些附近城市出口当地制造的“facon-de-Venise”容器，或者使用了与安特卫普类似的焊剂/焊剂混合物。
At the beginning of the 16th century, Antwerp was one of the most important ports in Europe. Among the archaeological finds that are dated to this period of great wealth, an important number of fragments from luxurious glass vessels have been found. In view of the high price of finished Venetian glassware, it is unlikely that all the Antwerp glass finds are Venetian products. The aim of this investigation was to determine whether there was a significant local production of ‘facon-de-Venise’ glass vessels in Antwerp in the 16th century and to elucidate how this local production can be distinguished from ‘real’ (i.e., imported) Venetian ware. The analysis results for 122 ‘facon-de-Venise’ glass objects excavated in Antwerp were considered. Clustering of the Antwerp data revealed five compositional groups. Two groups of glass objects were found that feature a typical Venetian composition, one with a ‘Cristallo’-like composition and the other closely resembling ‘Vitrum Blanchum’ glass. The other three compositional groups contain glasses that probably were fabricated locally. The composition of a waste glass marble coincides with one of these groups. The differences between these three groups may indicate that different types of alkali were in use or possibly mixing of alkali types by the glass workers. The same non-Venetian composition was found in London, Amsterdam and various locations in France, which may be explained by the export of locally manufactured ‘facon-de-Venise’ vessels from Antwerp to these nearby cities or by the use of similar fluxes/flux mixtures to those in Antwerp.
