Book Description

April 1991
In 1976, the Corning Museum of Glass devoted it's entire issue of it's Journal of Glass Studies to the topic of John Frederick Amelung, an honor never awarded to any other glass-maker. This volume is an updated version of that Journal issue and it examines Amelung's glass-making venture from four distinct vantage points. The authors provide a history of the factory and it's lasting influence on American glass-making, an analytical survey of the documented products, a report on the archaeological investigation of one of the factory buildings, and a summary of chemical analyses of the fragments and documented glasses. Also included is a catalog containing photographs and detailed descriptions of Amelung's glasses and the inscriptions they bear.
