Jean Carre
?-1572
French glassmaker who revitalized the English glass-making industry. Carre was operating as a merchant in Antwerp in 1567, when he received a 21-year license from Queen Elizabeth to make "glass for glazing such as is made in France, Burgundy, and Lorraine." He brought to England glassmakers from Italy and the French regions of Burgundy and Lorraine, where the art had long thrived.
