It just says "heating furnace". Literally: add, heat, stove/furnace for the three characters.

No idea where glory hole came from.

That is what this particular type of furnace is called in glassblowing. A glory hole is a specific furnace for reheating glass that has been gathered to keep it at the right temperature.
