My trip to the National Museum of Cambridge Glass was quite impressive, lots of interesting Family history stories from a 4th generation employee. Then we moved into another room filled with metal etched plates used to create designs on the glassware, we were given crayons & paper to do rubbings on the design of choice, as we learned the process of transferring the design from metal plates to delicate glassware.
