Collecting Old Glass, English and Irish

by Sir J. H. Yoxall

9. TAVERN AND KITCHEN GLASSES

Old glasses are often found which in shape and purpose correspond with those described in this chapter and chapters vi, vii, and viii, but were obviously inferior in finish of make when new. These may be taken to be glasses made cheaply for tavern and kitchen use; though not so attractive as the better qualities, they should not be neglected by the collector.
