Trace the history of American glassmaking from the 18th century through the present in Greenfield Village’s Davidson-Gerson Gallery of Glass. With Charles Sable, curator of decorative arts at The Henry Ford, discover how American glass began in the 18th century, growing from a rare and expensive item at the beginning but, through American innovation, emerging as a ubiquitous object of everyday life by the early 1900s. We will also look at the genesis of art glass, led by Louis Comfort Tiffany and his rivals at the turn of the 20th century, and the explosion of studio glass in the 1960s and its evolution since.
