Manufacturing Processes of Colored Glass and Lead in 19th Century America
Julie Sloan, a stained glass conservationist and president of McKernan Satterlee Associates, a stained glass conservation firm, received the 1994 award for the study of a neglected type of 1 th century decorative window glass, opalescent glass. This important glass type, used extensively by Tiffany and LaFarge, has not in the past been accurately understood, thus hampering conservation efforts. The grant supported research and a report entitled “Origins of Early Opalescent Window Glass.”
