Glass and other vitreous materials

Abstract

Recent analytical results and their interpretation, particularly in the fields of coloured and lead glasses, are reviewed. Much attention has been given to production dynamics ‐ furnace temperatures and atmospheres, and times of formation ‐ in an attempt to explain products which cannot be interpreted from their composition alone. Current work on freshly excavated material of this kind from a number of sites in England is described. There are intriguing possibilities in the study of lead glasses, especially sealing‐wax red, in relation to origins and movement.
