On View Gallery Watson Library

Glassmaker and chemist Apsley Pellatt owned Falcon Glass Works, a pre-eminent glass manufactory in Southwark, London, known for its quality and artistry. He investigated and became an authority on the principles of both ancient and modern glass making, traveling widely and visiting glassworks in Venice, Bohemia, Belgium, and France. As a glass collector, Moore shared Pellatt’s passion for understanding glass making and undoubtedly made extensive use of this volume.
