The part about how glass goes from brown, to amber, to green, to blue absolutely blew my mind!

I've seen a design for a high temp clay furnace like this that basically use an insulated double wall. There is an inner chamber for the fire and crucible, and an outer shell with a few inches of gap between them. The gap is then filled with loosely packed white ash from previous fires. The small air pockets in the fine powder and high temperature tolerance make an insulation that is high performing for something so primitive

I think the extra step of making charcoal might still make sense at your scale. It will ensure the fuel is all extremely dry and will burn hotter, which would save you a bunch of time getting up to temperature on glass day and reduce the chances of a poor wood supply keeping you from succeeding. If you were cranking out glass every day, perfecting the wood fire is obviously a better option economically, but when your goal is successful glass blowing and not being financially profitable, take every edge you can get.

One thing they don't talk much about is how badly scarred ancient glassmakers were. Burns were common and so was lung damage from breathing fumes and heat. At those temperatures, the furnaces could fail explosively if just a small amount of water hit a hot spot. So, it was a dangerous occupation. I'm glad you got through it with minimal harm.

Those flames shooting out of your chimney suggest either there isn't enough oxygen prior to that, or your chambers need to the longer to allow that combustion to happen inside the structure. You're wasting all the heat of flames coming out of the chimney. If you can make the height difference larger, that will help. you could also experiment with pre-heated secondary air intake injected after your primary burn chamber to ensure full combustion. Look up rocket stove design.
