Georgian wired glass
Depending on the grate size of the wire shelf, it is either a good or bad idea to put glass on it. If it is shaky or unsturdy, do not put glass on it. Otherwise, if it won't fall through or fall off, then sure, you can put glass on it.
Filament. Correct; made of tungsten wire in most incandescent bulbs.
to 1 bulbs 1.5 and and if large florecent 3.5.. this is correct

The correct GAUGE wire is 28 for a car stereo.
Glass has excellent insulation characteristics
No
Most electric fires work by passing current through a resistance wire, made of Nichrome. It is this wire that gets hot. The wire is sometimes wrapped around, or contained within, a glass or ceramic former. This will also dissapate the heat. There are other type that work through infra red.

A wire is a conductor. It is usually coated with an insulator to isolate the current flowing in the conductor portion of the wire from other things around the wire, like your hand.
The glass you are referring to is "Wire Glass" and it is often used in schools, Fire Stations and other institutions as a type of impact resistant glass. Current testing of such glass idicates that it is less resistant to impact than today's annealed/tempered glasses.
If you were to put a bare wire belonging to anything in a glass of water, the electricity flowing through the wire would have no reason to continue to travel through the wire instead of dispersing in the water. The water offers less resistance, so the electricity flows through that instead of the wire. This is known as creating a short circuit, or a short, for short! With no electricity flowing through the bulb, it will turn off.
