In 1675, George Ravenscroft invented the lead glass formula which was to transform glass selling in England. This book explores the variety of drinking glasses, from the heavy balusters pre-dating 1700 to the faceted stems of around 1800, which are sought after by collectors. It features illustrations of the range of glass designs.
