I've taken on the task of producing a study collection of 50 to 75 pieces from a gift of over 2500 pieces of mostly late 19th century pattern glass. I am searching for pattern glass experts who ideally work in museums rather than at auction houses and would be able to offer me some practical collections advice. If you are, or know of someone who might have faced a similar situation in dealing with pattern glass please respond off the list.
