Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Preservation and Repair of Historic Stained and Leaded Glass Despite many failed starts, the War of 1812, and British competition, American glass production increased steadily throughout the 19th century. Stained glass was available on a very limited basis in America during the first quarter of the 19th century, but American stained glass did not really emerge in its own right until the The windows at St. Ann and the Holy Trinity Episcopal Church in Brooklyn, New York, made by John and William Jay Bolton between 1843 and 1848, are perhaps the most significant early American stained glass installation (fig. Other important early stained glass commissions were the glass ceilings produced by the]. G. H. Gibson Company of Philadelphia for the House and Senate chambers of the United States Capitol in 1859. America's glass industry boomed during the second half of the 19th century. (and although stained and leaded glass is found nationwide, the manufacturing was based in the Northeast and Midwest, where good natural ingredients for glass, and coal reserves for the kilns were available. Moreover, nearly all of the nationally renowned studios were based in major metropolitan areas of the central and northeastern states - near the manufacturers that supplied their raw materials.) In response to this growth, the industry formed self-regulating associations that established guidelines for business and production. In 1879 the Window Glass Association of America was established, and in 1903 The National Ornamental Glass Manufacturers' Association, precursor of the Stained Glass Association in America, was formed.

Book Stained Glass Conservation

Download or read book Stained Glass Conservation written by JL. Sloan and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conservation of historic stained glass windows in America requires highly specialized expertise. The stained glass condition analysis must cover all of the materials of a stained glass window, that is, glass, came, decorative treatments, supports, frames, and protective materials. The condition analysis seeks to discover the causes of deterioration and to suggest remedies that will preserve the artistic and structural integrity of the window without requiring replacement for at least another century. Specifications for the restoration of stained glass must take into account all aspects of the restoration, from removal to reinstallation. This includes stipulating the requirements of basic good craftsmanship as well as the materials and procedures of specialized restoration techniques, such as paint consolidation or rejoining broken glass. The writing of good specifications demands intimate knowledge of each window in question, as well as the specifics of the craft and restoration of stained glass.
