Hiya welcome two the glass message board.

Keep trying to resize your pictures until they fit, because we will be asking to see them anyway.

The first thing that jumps to mind when you say glass swords is Sardinia glass . This operation did not last a very long time and there is no information online that I could find.

Well it's a start, at least.
