Abstract:
The investigation of historic window glass from the Music Room (originally constructed 1793-97) at Kenwood House was undertaken using complimentary laboratory-based equipment and a portable XRF instrument to determine glass composition and type. The glass falls into two groups: a potassium-calcium-silicate glass and a sodium-calcium-silicate glass. The former is extremely rare in England but is paralleled at Walmer Castle, Kent. This glass was probably imported from Bohemia or Germany at considerable expense. It is not immediately apparent why such expensive glass was used in this context (blind windows) but the context may help to explain why this glass has survived for over two centuries
