Wrong Name For Years–Part II

Dr. Greg Merkel provided attendees of the Symposium his findings regarding the yellow, amber and brown colors based on Carder’s notebooks, literature, and chemical analysis of glass pieces. Greg’s scientific study revealed that we’ve been calling Carder’s yellow glass the wrong name for years….. it’s Topaz! Many other revelations were shared with all the lucky members who attended.
