Book Description
Excerpt from Old English Glasses: An Account of Glass Drinking Vessels in England, From Early Times to the End of the Eighteenth Century; With Introductory Notices, Original Documents, Etc IN the following work, which comprises the history of a subject never before undertaken for England, the author has primarily endeavoured to provide information concerning drinking-glasses and glass-making in this country from Roman times to 1800. Dealing first with objects in vitreous pastes found in Britain, the flaw (mean of Strabo, the aggry beads, - some of them remnants, apparently, of Phoenician commerce, - Roman mosaic beads, and their quasi-imitations the beads of anglo-saxon times, are successively touched upon. The evidences of glass-furnaces in Britain during the Roman domina tion are spoken of; and while the large and varied number of drinking-vessels of anglo-saxon times are discussed historically, 'an endeavour is made for the first time to bring them into order, to classify, and to date them. The imported Oriental glasses a la facon de Damas, a la Moresque - are not overlooked, and the collateral rise and progress of painted glass in England, from the middle of the twelfth century to the time of the English painted windows of the Chapel of King's, of the first quarter of the sixteenth, is shown. Testimonies are adduced indicating the continuation of the manufacture of glass drinking-vessels in England during this long period, and up to the middle of the sixteenth century, illustrated by the evidence of inventories and a few actual vessels.
