Jack-in-the-Pulpit
The back is just as beautiful as the front.

American Art Glass Exhibit
Hello McFaddin-Ward Friends!
The exhibit that I researched all summer on American Art Glass, is up in the Visitor's Center! There are some beautiful pieces from the Reserve Collection, that you most likely have never seen. This includes the display of modern, brightly colored Blenko glass, two Steuben marmalade jars, and a beautiful Gundersen-Paripoint perfume bottle.
The Jack-in-the-Pulpit vase by Quezal (usually displayed prominently in the music room) shines brightly in the case. I think it's a treat to see it up close and under a bright light! All the colored and cut glass really shines in the case. I hope you'll come by and see it!
I will give a talk on some of the companies and highlight a few of the major pieces on Tuesday August 30 at 10:00 am.
