'''Glass furnaces''' are used to make raw [[glass]] (a [[gem]]), [[block]]s, and [[furniture]] items. All furniture made at a glass furnace can alternatively be made out of either [[metal]], [[stone]] or [[wood]], with the exception of [[window]]s, which can only otherwise be made from gems. Glass furnaces can make craft goods, and [[vial]]s for making extracts. Clear glass vials are needed to build an [[alchemist's laboratory]]. Raw glass is sometimes a component needed to make [[Legendary artifact|artifacts]].
 
  
Glass furnaces can make goods from green glass, clear glass, and crystal glass. Green glass requires [[sand]], clear glass requires sand and [[pearlash]], and crystal glass requires raw [[rock crystal]]s and pearlash. Raw rock crystals are a type of gem and are not available in most regions.

Many of the names of glass furniture are different. A glass [[door]] is called a [[door|portal]], a glass [[coffer]] is called a [[Container|box]], and a glass [[cage]] is called a [[terrarium]] (and can be filled with water to make an [[aquarium]], useful when [[captured live fish|capturing live fish]]).
+
Glass furnaces can make green glass, clear glass, and crystal glass goods. Green glass goods require sand, clear glass requires [[sand]] and [[pearlash]], and crystal glass requires raw [[rock crystal]]s and pearlash. Raw rock crystals are a type of gem and are usually very difficult to find.
  
Glass furnaces are also needed to issue the "collect sand" order. This requires an empty [[bag]], an Item Hauler, and a [[Activity_zone|zone]] designated for sand collection. As the "Collect Sand" order will prevent other tasks from being started until the sand is collected, it is often wise to build several additional glass furnaces, magma or otherwise, to use solely for the collection of sand.

Not all maps have a source of sand, and sand may not be imported. Raw or cut glass may not be imported, and neither can rough [[rock crystal]]s. Foreign merchants never have glass furniture for sale.

Glass furnaces are also needed to issue the "collect sand" order. This requires an empty [[bag]], and Item Hauler, and a [[Activity_zone|zone]] designated for sand collection. Collection of sand and making of glass items is usually more efficient if you make a Glass furnace and set it to collect sand, and then have another ([[Magma glass furnace]]) churn out glass items, as the "Collect Sand" task will keep the furnace occupied and unavailable for other tasks until the sand collection is completed.  A good glassmaker's shop will become rapidly [[Clutter|cluttered]] with empty bags, so it may be beneficial to occasionally swap which shop makes glass and which shop gathers sand.
