Conservation and Restoration of Glass

by Sandra Davison

An introduction and textbook for students studying conservation and for conservators and restorers of glass, now available as a revised second edition. Focusing less on painted glass restoration (which has been removed) and more on conservation issues, the book now outlines the historical development of glass and its production technology as wel as the chemical and physical properties of glass. Davison discusses the deterioration of glass, the materials required in restoration projects, how to examine, record and document glass, as well as general conservation and restoration issues. 380p, b/w figs (Butterworth-Heinemann 1989, 2nd edn 2003)
