Aventurine Glass Manufactured in Gloucester

For over eleven years Walsh Bros. of
Janvier, this county, have been working on
the manufacture of Aventurine Glass, and
at last have produced something that the
Venetans themselves proclaimed impossible
as proved in letter received by them from
our Consul at Venice. We met Mr. E. NJ
Walsh in Philadelphia the other day. He
was about to 90 to New York to confer
generously given them the privilege of
exhibiting their product in their exhibit at
the Pan-American Exposition at Buffalo,
opening in May next. Mr.. Walsh also
informs us that this Spring they will
exhibit in one of the we'll known art stores
on Chestnut street some of their work.
This Aventurine Glass that the Walsh
Bros. are making, is the celebrated golden
spangled glass of the Venetian's, supposed
to have been discovered by some monks
about two hundred years ago, and kept
profound secret for over one hundred years.
1t is the veritable Philosophers stone of the
glass maker Thousands have tried to
make it, and spent thousands OF dollars
endeavoring to do so, yet we know of none
either in this country or Great Britain who
have succeeded with the exception of Walsh
Bros. Irrespective of their having dis
covered how to make this glass, they have
found out how to produce it in large slabs
for table tops, etc., ETC., and for this the
Patent offices in this country and Great
Britain have very justly granted their
letters patent. Aventurine is beautiful
production and will always be ranked as
product of high art. 1t is simply impos-
sible for it ever to become cheap thing,
i I.
counter. We are proud of the achieve
