Founded in 1876, the Meriden Flint Glass Company produced internationally renowned glass which adorned ornate lanterns, jewelry boxes, vases, and many other intricate pieces. Although it was only in operation for a brief time, the company remains an important landmark in Meriden, Connecticut as well as the history of the American glassmaking industry. Author Diane Tobin details the history of the company, drawing upon extensive sources ranging from local Meriden papers and even the personal diary of the company's intrepid leader, Joseph Bourne. Fascinating insights into how the famous glass was made, the role the company played in early labor movements and the growth of Meriden alongside it, round out this exciting history of the Meriden Flint Glass Company.
