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.
