American glassmaking became a popular industry in the late 19th and
early 20th centuries when the population expanded and demanded
pretty decorative goods to reflect their growing affluence. This
new book presents over 500 pretty, American-made glass bells
identified by their type of bell, producer, and period; and with
descriptions that include their size, color, decoration or pattern,
and range of values. Each bell is shown in beautiful color
photography. Chapters focus on American art glass, cut glass,
blown, pressed, and lampwork glass bells. Bell collectors,
historians, museum curators, and glass lovers all will find this an
important reference for their libraries.
