The first who learned that secret was Mikhail Lomonosov. The first chemical laboratory was opened in St.Petersburg, where Lomonosov made glass. Some of those examples are kept in Russian museums.

In order to use the results of his

work in practice Lomonosov

decided to build a factory.

He wrote a letter to Count

Shuvalov, who had a great

influence, describing

importance and advantages of

such a factory. Shuvalov

supported Lomonosov.

The area near the

town of

Oranienbaum, was

given to build the

factory. The project of

the factory was made

by Lomonosov. For

the foundation bricks

were necessary, so,

a brick factory was

built near Ust-

Ruditsa. Mechanical

work was performed

with the help of the

Ruditsa watermill.

The factory was built within two years. Lomonosov sent skilled

workers abroad to learn at different glass factories.

The Russian factory was opened in the spring of 1754. The factory

manufactured coloured tableware.
