Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
This chapter considers the raw materials (kelp, ash and barilla, the use of oxides), the process of fusing the ingredients into glass, furnace design, crucibles and the products (bottles, window glass, plate-glass). Despite the changes to furnace design and the ingredients used in the batch which are described, the glass blower of 1750 would have used the same tools, employed the same techniques, and worked the same hours, as his predecessor in 1610. And his successors would continue to do so, until the introduction of pressed glass in the 1830s. | ||
