This illustrated guide is the first comprehensive classification of vessel glass found in England between 1500-1670. This book provides a clear and accessible coverage of vessel forms with an indication of their date range, provenance and a description. Each form is illustrated with an excavated example and there is a general summary of the types with reconstruction drawings at the end. The Research Report also addresses how post-medieval glass should be studied, summarizes current information on the production and importation of vessels in England and provides a social context for glass use.
